WSFSSH MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of WSFSSH is to provide safe, affordable, senior housing that integrates compassionate property management with supportive services to enhance the independence and dignity of each resident. WSFSSH creates and preserves affordable housing while supporting the development of healthy neighborhoods.

JOB SUMMARY 

The Social Worker I is expected to work autonomously while developing 1:1 relationships with the residents.  This relationship will enable the Social Worker I to provide a comprehensive range of social work services to the residents and enable the residents to establish and maintain safe and independent lifestyles in the community.   

WSFSSH strongly supports M.S.W. level social workers  obtaining their licensing.  We offer study groups for staff who are preparing to take their exam. WSFSSH will also pay for a study course if needed, and pays for up to 2 licensing exams, as well as registration/licensing fees.

Once a MSW staff member has obtained their LMSW, WSFSSH will cover reasonably priced CEU credits in order to meet licensing requirements.  In addition, WSFSSH will provide weekly clinical supervision by a LCSW, and because WSFSSH is a waivered agency with the NYS Education Department, a LMSW's work experience will count towards their LCSW. Typically, after 3 years of full time employment, a LMSW will be eligible to apply for their LCSW.  Similarly, WSFSSH will cover testing and licensing fees to obtain the clinical license, and when LCSW is obtained, WSFSSH will cover the cost of CEUs to maintain the license.
