Job description

Some careers are just jobs. This one is different. At Georgia HOPE, the work you do every day creates meaningful change for children, families, and individuals who need it most.

We're a Georgia-based behavioral health provider on a mission to instill hope, empower lives, and strengthen communities. Our team specializes in supporting individuals facing emotional and behavioral challenges—often those who have experienced trauma, instability, or significant life stressors. We deliver services directly in the homes, schools, and communities where our clients live and grow, because real progress happens when care is personalized, strengths-focused, and meets people where they are.

As part of the Health Connect America family—a COA-accredited organization serving children, families, and adults across nine states—you'll have the resources, support, and professional development of a larger organization, paired with the close-knit, mission-focused culture that defines our work.

If you’re looking for a career where your impact is visible, your growth is supported, and your work truly matters, you’ll find it here.

• Review clinical documentation for quality, accuracy, and compliance while ensuring services meet organizational standards, payer requirements, and accreditation expectations.
• Assist with program growth and operational initiatives, including recruitment, marketing, strategic planning, budgeting support, meeting facilitation, and performance improvement activities.
• Provide direct clinical services to assigned clients, when requested by the Program Director, while maintaining timely documentation and adherence to all clinical, state, and payer requirements.
• Foster a culture of professionalism, collaboration, quality improvement, and culturally responsive care while supporting the organization's mission and ensuring compliance with all applicable policies and regulations.

What to Expect

You'll partner closely with Program Directors, clinicians, and administrative staff to ensure high-quality service delivery while supporting the professional growth of your team and the continued success of the program.

Your schedule may include a combination of administrative responsibilities, staff mentorship, meetings, documentation review, and, when needed, direct client care in community-based settings.

Success in this role requires strong clinical judgment, excellent organizational and communication skills, the ability to balance multiple priorities, and a commitment to fostering a collaborative, accountable, and client-centered culture.

We welcome candidates who are passionate about advancing high-quality behavioral health services through clinical leadership, operational excellence, and team collaboration.
