Substance Use Disorder Treatment Program, Behavioral Health Specialist 1/Qualified Mental Health Associate (Wilsonville/Portland) Limited Duration
or drop it." So we can include a short p with things like Initial Posting Date, Application Deadline, Agency, Position Type, Salary Range? Actually Salary Range is Pay section, we need to include Pay if posting actually states them. Yes salary range is given: $6,895 - $9,140. Also note about PERS qualifying applicants may be eligible for adjusted range to reflect additional 6.95%. That's pay info. So Pay section should include that. Schedule: Not explicitly stated. There's mention of rotating shift locations between facilities, travel required, but no schedule like full-time, part-time, shift hours. Not given. So we should not create Schedule section. Benefits: There's a Benefits section describing state benefits. So include Benefits. About the role: There's "About The Job – Your Role" description. So we can have About the role. Responsibilities: The description includes duties: care coordination, assessment, treatment planning, psychosocial skills development, behavior management, milieu management, case management, care coordination, group facilitation as needed, collaborating with stakeholders, referring out, etc. So we can put Responsibilities. Requirements: There's Minimum Qualifications and Additional Requirements. Could combine into Requirements section. But also Qualifications separate? The instruction says use headings for Qualifications, Skills, etc. We need to decide what content goes where. We have Minimum Qualifications (education/experience or QMHA certification). Additional Requirements (credentialed as QMHA, knowledge in evidence-based trauma-informed etc, experience providing skills training and case management, completion of clinical documentation). Desired Attributes (CADC-I, chronic disease approach, justice-system experience, group facilitation, at least 1 year case management). So we can map: - Qualifications: Minimum Qualifications (education/experience or QMHA certification). Possibly also Additional Requirements? But Additional Requirements are more like requirements. Could treat Requirements as the combination of Minimum Qualifications + Additional Requirements. Qualifications could be the Desired Attributes? Hmm. Better to follow typical job posting: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have content for: - About the role: description of purpose, role. - Responsibilities: list of duties (care coordination, assessment, treatment planning, etc.) - Requirements: Minimum Qualifications + Additional Requirements (must be credentialed as QMHA, knowledge, experience, documentation). Could be separate but we can combine into Requirements. - Qualifications: Desired Attributes (CADC-I, chronic disease approach, justice-system experience, group facilitation, at least 1 year case management). Or maybe Qualifications = Minimum Qualifications? But we already used Requirements for that. Let's think: Usually Requirements = mandatory; Qualifications = preferred. So we can set Requirements = Minimum Qualifications + Additional Requirements (mandatory). Qualifications = Desired Attributes (preferred). Skills: maybe we can extract skills like case management, care coordination, group facilitation, documentation, trauma-informed interventions, etc. But we might not need a separate Skills section if content thin. However we have some skill-like content: "knowledge in evidence-based, trauma-informed, gender-responsive treatment interventions", "experience providing skills training and case management", "completion of clinical documentation", "curriculum-based group facilitation experience". Those could be skills. But we already used them in Requirements/Qualifications. To avoid duplication, we could create Skills section for specific skill sets: case management, care coordination, group facilitation, clinical documentation, trauma-informed interventions, etc. But we must not invent or summarize away detail; we can list them as bullet points. We need to preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we must include all details from posting. If we split into sections, we must ensure we don't lose any detail. We can duplicate content across sections? That would be repeating detail, but maybe okay as long as we preserve. However better to allocate each piece to a section without losing. Let's parse the posting for each piece: - Initial Posting Date 09/17/2026 - Application Deadline 10/01/2026 - Agency Department of Corrections - Salary Range $6,895 - $9,140 - Position Type Employee - Position Title Substance Use Disorder Treatment Program, Behavioral Health Specialist 1/Qualified Mental Health Associate (Wilsonville/Portland) Limited Duration - Job Description (repeats title) - Substance Use Disorder Treatment Program, Behavioral Health Specialist 1/Qualified Mental Health Associate (Wilsonville/Portland) Limited Duration - Coffee Creek Correctional Facility – Wilsonville, Oregon - Columbia River Correctional Institution – Portland, Oregon - Oregon Department of Corrections - We have an exceptional opportunity for a Behavior Health Specialist 1 with rotating shift locations between Coffee Creek Correctional Facility (CCCF) in Wilsonville, Oregon and Columbia River Correctional Institution in Portland, Oregon. - This position is expected to last through September 30, 2027; and will be filled as a Limited Duration; this position may be extended if additional funding is approved. - About The Job – Your Role - purpose: provide care coordination for adults in custody (AICs) releasing from treatment into the community. - AICs enrolled in Alternative Incarceration Program (AIP) or Co-occurring disorders (COD) treatment services in minimum custody institutions releasing to any of the 36 counties across Oregon. - AICs releasing may need assistance with identifying housing, transportation, clothing, SUD aftercare services, mentoring referrals, and/or medical or mental health referrals. - QMHA responsible for collaborating with systems stakeholders to identify resources, as well as referring out to community providers for care. - Services provided include assessment, treatment planning, psychosocial skills development, behavior management, milieu management, case management, and care coordination. - This position may also provide group facilitation as needed. - This position has contact with all levels of institution staff, as well as other agencies, individuals, and groups that interface with the ODOC. - This position is supervised by the Alternative Incarceration Treatment Program Manager. - This position is represented by AFSCME. - This position may be eligible for Police & Fire (P&F) benefits through PERS, as defined by statute. - Minimum Qualifications - May be multiple ways. - Encourage review. - Your Application Will Be Reviewed To Verify You Have: * A Bachelor's degree in a behavioral science field; OR * A combination of at least three years of relevant work, education, training, or experience; OR * Possession of a current Qualified Mental Health Associate (QMHA) certification; OR * A qualified Mental Health Intern, as defined in 309-019-0105(61). - Additional Requirements - Applicants must be credentialed as a QMHA or meet the criteria for credentialing. - This position requires knowledge in evidence-based, trauma-informed, gender-responsive treatment interventions for adults with substance related disorders and co-occurring mental health disorders. - It requires experience providing skills training and case management for individuals impacted by substance related disorders and/or persistent mental health disorders and completion of clinical documentation of individual encounters in a timely manner. - Desired Attributes - Credentialed as a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor 1 (CADC-I) with MHACB - Knowledge of the chronic disease approach to substance use disorder treatment - Experience working with justice-system-involved clients or mandated populations - Curriculum-based group facilitation experience - At least 1 year of case management experience or equivalent experience with care coordination or resource navigation services - Application Information (instructions) - we need to remove application instructions per rule: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions."

Might be considered generic but it's substantive about department. The instruction says remove boilerplate, but this is specific to ODOC. Might keep? However it's not a required section heading; we could fold into a short p under About the role or maybe a separate section "About the Department". But headings list does not include About the Department. We could incorporate into About the role or maybe drop as it's not required. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could include a short paragraph about department within About the role or maybe a separate section not in headings list? But we must only use headings from list; we cannot add other headings. So we could include that info in a
under About the role or maybe under Responsibilities? Probably better to add a short paragraph after About the role describing department. But we must not invent headings. So we can just include a
after the About the role heading that includes department info. - Benefits - The salary range listed above is for non-PERS qualifying applicants. PERS qualifying applicants may be eligible for an adjusted range to reflect an additional 6.95%. - The State of Oregon provides a generous benefit package, which includes: * Family health, vision, and dental insurance * Vacation, sick leave, and 11 paid holidays * 21 days paid military leave for national guard and reserve components * Optional short and long-term disability * Term life insurance * Fully paid retirement program * Oregon Saving Growth Plan * Flexible spending accounts for health and childcare * And more - About The Process – What To Expect (process description) - this is application instructions/process; we should remove per rule: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions."

Likely should be removed. - Requirements For Employment - Must pass CJIS fingerprint-based background check and maintain CJIS eligibility. - Due to CJIS requirements related to system access, there may be some felony convictions that could disqualify you for this position.
