Key Responsibilities




Clinical Coordination

• Assist in coordinating successful admissions into Georgia’s Forensic CIHs and Forensic Apartments.

• Track and ensure clinical intake assessments for new admissions are conducted and documented per policy.

• Attend monthly CIH clinical meetings with CFD, FCC, Team Lead, etc. to ensure clinical needs are being met.

• Ensure CIH Team Leads are well-trained on SOPs and any policy changes or modifications.

• Promote a culture of safety by training staff on emergency preparedness, behavioral support plans, and individualized recovery plans (IRPs).

• Ensure individualized treatment plans are properly implemented and managed.

• Monitor the use of clinical best practices in resident care and ensure CIH Team Leads are trained accordingly.

• Submit administrative reviews and investigative reports as required. Community Service Liaison

• Act as a statewide liaison between DBHDD and all Community Service Boards (CSBs) under the direction of Forensic Housing Administration, attending scheduled monthly meetings.

• Assess Community Services and Partnerships

o Identify any gaps or barriers to access and recommend improvements to ensure equitable service delivery.

o Actively seek out potential new partnerships that could enhance the quality of services provided to CIHs.

• Provide direct supervision of all CIH Team Leads.

• Monitor and manage employee productivity, ensuring adherence to all HR and administrative requirements.

• Ensure adequate staffing across all CIHs.

• Disseminate critical information from leadership meetings to maintain clear communication.

• Conduct ad hoc staff meetings as needed to discuss updates and operational priorities.

• Establish performance improvement goals and audits to enhance program services.

• Serve as a temporary Team Lead in the absence of the assigned Team Lead.








This is a High Trust, High Accountability Role. This position is unique because it sits at the intersection of clinical oversight, housing operations, forensic systems, and statewide leadership. It is not a traditional clinician role and not a typical housing administrator role. It blends systems-level clinical coordination with hands-on operational accountability across multiple sites.

This role is uniquely positioned as the translator between:

Clinical teams (CFD, FCC, CSBs, treatment providers)

Housing operations (Team Leads, staffing, safety, site conditions)
