Compensation: $47,000 per year.

About the role

An OhioRise Moderate Care Coordinator is a professional working under Ohio Medicaid's OhioRise program serving children with complex needs across behavioral health, juvenile justice, child welfare, developmental disabilities, education, and others. Moderate Care Coordinators work to deliver community-based, wraparound care coordination. As a Care Coordinator, you'll guide children and families through the OhioRise program, helping them access the right services, build stronger support systems, and achieve better health outcomes. This role focuses on collaboration, compassion, and advocacy, empowering families while working alongside providers and community partners to ensure care is coordinated and effective.

The Ohio Department of Medicaid (ODM) introduced OhioRISE (Resilience through Integrated Systems and Excellence) as Ohio’s first highly integrated care program for youth with complex behavioral health and multi-system needs. National Youth Advocate Program (NYAP) serves as the Care Management Entity (CME) in Catchment Area C, covering 11 Ohio counties: Allen, Auglaize, Champaign, Clark, Darke, Hardin, Greene, Logan, Madison, Miami, and Shelby. The CME delivers wraparound care coordination for children and youth enrolled in OhioRise who have moderate behavioral health needs and helps grow the system of care in the communities served.

This full-time position cultivates flexible, family-focused, community-based responsive services based on the High-Fidelity Wraparound model of care coordination, covering Greene County and overlapping into Clark County as needed.
