West Central has developed a new innovative program that will provide Mobile Crisis Outreach to individuals 24 hours a day/7 days a week! The primary goal with this program is to assist individuals with a mental illness before they end up in a significant crisis and require hospitalization. West Central Behavioral Mobile Crisis is looking to hire an individual(s) who are interested working on this team, specifically the overnight shifts from 11 p.m. -7 a.m. in either of our two locations in Newport/Claremont or Lebanon New Hampshire.

A Crisis Counselor develops meaningful and trusting relationships with clients, acts as a mentor, and gives consumers the support they need to better advocate for themselves, based on their personal experiences. The Crisis Counselor provides clients an example of what they can strive for in their recovery and works as a part of an interdisciplinary team.
