Trilogy has received funding from the State of Illinois to develop and implement a mobile crisis response program due to the recognition that mental health crises are not currently addressed in the most effective, safe, and trauma-informed way. Trilogy will be providing mobile crisis outreach services to community members in Rogers Park, Edgewater, Andersonville, Skokie, Evanston, and Uptown areas.

The Team Leader will serve as the senior clinician on the Alternative Crisis Response team; and have overall responsibility for the direct supervision of employees on their team and oversee the coordination and quality of services provided by the team. The Team Leader will be central to the development and implementation of this new program to provide improved response to mental health crises. The Team Leader will develop a cohesive team by hiring and training dynamic clinicians, providing coaching and mentoring to team members. The Team Leader will routinely interface with other leaders in the organization to enhance communication, cooperation/collaboration across programs/departments, and to improve the quality and comprehensiveness of services provided. The Team Leader will provide and ensure the team provides person-centered, strengths-based, and trauma-informed services to clients with severe mental illness and co-occurring substance abuse/addiction utilizing a harm reduction approach.

The Team Leader will interface with referral sources to maintain professional relationships and ensure timely and seamless execution of crisis response.
