San Joaquin County, CA | $5,000 Sign-On Bonus | Mon-Fri, 8:00 AM-5:00 PM

At Telecare, we believe recovery is possible for everyone. Our mission is simple yet powerful - to help individuals reclaim their health, hopes, and dreams. Through compassion, innovation, and inclusion, we're changing the way communities experience behavioral health care.

Now, we're seeking a Clinical Director to lead the next evolution of our groundbreaking Mobile Crisis Response Team (MCRT) - a program that meets people in crisis where they are, helping them find safety, stability, and hope.

Passion. Mindset. Innovation. These set us apart.

MCRT is a 24/7 mobile behavioral health program serving individuals of all ages across San Joaquin County. Instead of traditional emergency responses, our teams bring skilled clinicians, case managers, and peers directly into the community to deliver care - not cuffs.

Our mission: to bridge the gap between crisis and recovery by collaborating with local partners like the Access & Crisis Line (ACL) and law enforcement. Together, we provide:

• 
  

  Rapid crisis triage & management

  
  
• 
  

  In-person stabilization & intervention

  
  
• 
  

  Risk assessments & treatment recommendations

  
  
• 
  

  Community-based follow-up and care coordination

  
  

As Clinical Director, you'll be the steady leadership voice guiding this life-changing work. Reporting to the Administrator, you will:

• 
  

  Lead, mentor, and clinically supervise a passionate multidisciplinary team

  
  
• 
  

  Shape program strategy and uphold quality improvement initiatives

  
  
• 
  

  Oversee day-to-day operations with clinical insight and compassion

  
  
• 
  

  Serve as an on-call leader during rotation periods, supporting critical decision-making

  
  
• 
  

  Partner with community stakeholders to ensure care continuity and coordination

  
  

This is more than management - it's mission-driven leadership that transforms lives daily.
