New Leaf Behavioral Health is a nonprofit mental health organization that provides mental health treatment to individuals who may not otherwise have access to affordable or accessible healthcare. We provide a range of free and low-fee services to the many in our community who do not have insurance or lack the ability to pay out-of-pocket costs of their insurance benefits.
Many in our community - both children and adults - don't access traditional healthcare services and often miss getting referred for proper treatment.
We are interested in having several volunteers join us to work in an effort to bring awareness to mental health issues to individuals who may benefit from support. This position would involve working in teams to get information to individuals who may benefit from mental health services.
This opportunity is designed to allow individuals to get involved for a time-limited period and is flexible to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening and weekend availability.
