Assistant Director, Student Outreach and Support - Division of Student Affairs


Located in a historic neighborhood in the nation's capital, Georgetown offers rigorous academic programs, a global perspective, exciting ways to take advantage of Washington, D.C., and a commitment to social justice. Our community is a tight knit group of remarkable individuals interested in intellectual inquiry and making a difference in the world.

Requirements

Assistant Director, Student Outreach and Support - Division of Student Affairs

The Division of Student Affairs supports the academic mission by educating students as whole persons, promoting their intellectual, moral, spiritual, and social formation; enhancing students' learning and helping to prepare them for lives of discernment, civic engagement, and professional growth; teaching personal responsibility and respect for people of all faiths, cultures, and beliefs; promoting the health and safety of students and others in the University community.

The Division of Student Affairs is driven by our mission to care for the whole student and whole person. This is epitomized by our priority to maintain a robust safety net for students who experience complex, personal difficulty. Student Outreach and Support (SOS) works with colleagues across campus to organize outreach and follow-up care to students who are experiencing crisis or distress that impacts their social, personal, and/or academic stability.

The Assistant Director is part of the Office of Student Outreach and Support, and reports directly to the Director of Student Outreach and Support, and has duties that include but are not limited to:
  • A crucial function of SOS, and of the Assistant Director, is to broker services and ensure high-risk students are connected to appropriate levels of care. This position supports the effort of SOS in the University's management of high-impact, complex students of concern, defined as those who (1) threaten or attempt to cause harm to themselves, (2) experience significant disruption to a normal course of academic study due to the presence of psychiatric, behavioral, and/or mental-health related issues, and/or (3) present with behavior that may be worrisome to others and disruptive to University business or community stability.
  • Plays a key role in consulting with campus partners and triaging concerns that are reported to the Office of Student Outreach and Support (SOS), which are related to the health, safety, and well-being of undergraduate and graduate students.
  • Provides case management services to students whose disruption to academic progress is caused by a broad range of difficulties that may, at any point, rise to higher levels of concern if not moderated quickly and sufficiently, for example: unique financial concerns, severe/disruptive interpersonal difficulties, markedly difficult adjustments and transitions, or difficulty navigating complex healthcare systems. The Case Manager provides direct services focused on graduate students, and is also available for other tasks related to the undergraduate community as needed.
  • Monitors follow-up support to high-risk students by coordinating closely with various units in and outside of Student Affairs.
  • Provides some coordination with off-campus treatment providers as necessary.
  • In the first year specifically, works closely with the Director and the Associate Director in the formation of a graduate student care/consultation team.


Qualifications
  • Master's Degree in Counseling, Social Work, Higher Education Administration, or similar fields
  • At least 3 years of experience in education or closely related setting with demonstrated knowledge of crisis response, student conduct, student affairs administration, and case management support teams
  • Working knowledge of relevant state and federal laws including FERPA, HIPAA, ADA, and Title IX
  • Ability to work within and assist others in navigating through complex systems; understanding of treatment programs, mental health terminology; knowledge of medical privacy guidelines and ability to communicate difficult/sensitive information with relevant parties
  • Excellent organizational and communication skills, both verbal and written, and ability to exercise sound judgment and decision-making
  • Demonstrated commitment and success working in a multicultural environment with a critical understanding of social justice
  • Strong preference for skills, knowledge and experience specifically focused on the needs of graduate students, international students, students of color, LGBTQ students, and students with disabilities
