Housing Choices helps our clients – individuals with developmental disabilities – to pursue independent living in community-based rental housing. Your job would be to help tenants with developmental disabilities maintain their rental apartments at rental properties. We see housing as a foundation for all other aspects of independent living, and our efforts are integral to helping our clients achieve housing stability. You’ll collaborate as part of a tight-knit team of Resident Coordinators while providing a variety of housing support services to our clients: troubleshooting challenging situations with clients, helping them maintain their housing, and becoming an important part of their lives. You’ll regularly marshall different resources for your clients, including family, social service, legal, and financial assistance. You’ll support clients through interpersonal conflicts, administrative logistics, and healthy lifestyle choices. Each client has specific needs, and you’ll help them find options that fit their requirements. You'll guide clients through understanding their lease agreements as well as helping them to understand their rights and responsibilities as a tenant. You’ll act as a liaison with the property manager for the residents, their other support staff, and their family members.
