POSITION DETAILS

Addictions Recovery Center, Inc. (ARC) in Medford, Oregon, is a behavioral health agency providing a trauma-informed continuum of care for substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders in Southern Oregon. We are seeking a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC) – DHS Navigator to partner with Oregon DHS Child Welfare to support families impacted by substance use disorders (SUD).

This role focuses on bridging the gap between DHS, treatment providers, and community agencies by providing clinical counseling, case management, and recovery support to parents and guardians involved in the child welfare system. The DHS Navigator plays a vital role in helping clients navigate treatment, court requirements, and family reunification efforts, all while ensuring child safety remains the priority.

This is a field-based position that requires travel to DHS Child Welfare offices, client homes, courts, correctional facilities, and treatment programs. While this role supports DHS operations, the CADC DHS Navigator is an ARC employee and will maintain regular contact with ARC supervisors, attend supervision/team meetings, and align with ARC’s mission, values, and best practices.

ARC is an anti-harassment and anti-racism agency. The successful candidate will be responsible for creating and maintaining a professional, safe, and welcoming environment for all staff and clients.
