Common use of Case Manager Clause in Contracts

Case Manager. An OlyCAP case manager will be on site five days per week for four or more hours per day, and consistent with a client’s capability, will provide assistance to services to help the client transition into permanent housing. Working with the case manager the client will be able to regain self-reliance to live independently in permanent housing. By being able to come and stay at the shelter, it allows the case manager access to the client to triage them, and to assess and prioritize their needs. Case managers are trained in best practices. Based on a client assessment, and using other OlyCAP funding resources, a case manager helps the client obtain needed services like bus passes, laundry vouchers, either directly, or by referral to an agency that has those services. Case managers work with willing clients on their housing needs through a housing plan, and together, the case manager and client will identify available housing and subsidies, which helps the client learn housing search skills.
