Case Management

Case management at The Grounds involves preparing residents for success over the long term and assisting residents with developing life skills including financial planning and accountability development. Case managers also help with job skills including resume building, interviewing, workplace behavior, and career selection.

Case managers make sure their clients are attending their meetings, communicating with their sponsors and therapists, and are generally thriving within the program. They provide weekly communication with family members and status updates to ensure clients are meeting their goals and addressing any issues along the way.
