Eisner Pediatric & Family Medical Center is a Community Health Center in downtown Los Angeles serving both the primary care medical and mental health needs of our community.  We currently have an opening for a bilingual (Spanish) LCSW to coordinate Eisner’s Integrated Behavioral Health Program.  This program consists of two parts: one, an innovative, cutting-edge program that provides behavioral health services to our patients by co-locating therapists in our medical departments and working closely with the physicians. The coordinator will have an opportunity to supervise MSW students in this program The other program is in coordinating our HealthyWayLA program which serves our adult population and is a collaboration between the physicians and clinicians.. The candidate must be highly flexible, able to work in a fast-paced atmosphere, and collaborative.  Our population is primarily low-income Latino patients who suffer from anxiety and depression and serious psychosocial factors.  This program does not serve the chronically mental ill.
