Job description
Homelessness hurts; we’re here to help! If you have the heart of a “helper” we want you to join our team. Fourth Street Clinic (FSC) in downtown Salt Lake City has been providing those experiencing homelessness with essential healthcare services for 25 years. When you join the growing FSC team, you're not just taking a job, you’re making a real difference in people’s lives.
The Case Manager is a critical role within the Medical Street Outreach Team (STREET), assisting patients in accessing needed medical, social, educational, and other support services in both the clinic setting on-site, and off-site with patients residing in outdoor homeless encampments and among other community providers. Success as a STREET Case Manager involves effective facilitation of referral and follow-up services for medical and behavioral healthcare, insurance eligibility, transportation, care gap analysis, and improving patients’ social determinants of health.
This role is perfect for people who:
- Are confident, self-assured, and able to execute in a variety of settings and conditions, including inclement weather.
- Have familiarity with the Utah Case Management framework as established by the Department of Human Services (completed certification is preferred.)
- Are proactive advocates, driven to fulfill service interactions with clientele.
- Keep information organized and take detailed notes to meet all compliance requirements.
- Will maintain high physical mobility throughout the day (with or without accommodations), and can travel for company business around Salt Lake City and surrounding areas.
- Speak Spanish (preferred, but this is not essential.)
- Have completed their high school education with a diploma or GED equivalent. (College coursework in social work, social services, or similar degree preferred, but not required)
We are open to filling this position as either full-time or part-time, and welcome applicants seeking either schedule!
What’s in it for me?
Intrinsic rewards are wonderful, but we know you have fundamental needs, too. In addition to your competitive hourly wage, FSC has some of the best benefits around! We put employees in a great position to successfully balance work productivity and personal goals:
- We pay 100%of the premium for individual Health Insurance!
- Affordable Dental & Vision coverage
- Company-paid Life & Disability insurances
- 401(k) seeding & employer match!

- Tuition Reimbursement & Employee Assistance
Why Fourth Street Clinic?
According to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, many people in the United States don’t get needed health care services due to barriers such as a lack of transportation, affordable housing, educational background, or discrimination. FSC is here to provide services to vulnerable individuals and families, reducing barriers caused by social determinants of health. Wasatch Homeless Health Care, Inc. (doing business as Fourth Street Clinic) began in 1988 as a triage clinic with one part-time nurse, relying on hospitals for patient treatment. Today, FSC operates with a staff of nearly 100 caregivers and an eight-figure annual budget. Last year, we provided comprehensive health care to more than 5,000 unsheltered men, women, and children through more than 20,000 visits in-person on-site, virtually, or through our Mobile Outreach team.
Join a team of dedicated, innovative, mission-driven staff who seek to deliver healthcare to under-resourced members of our community!
Fourth Street Clinic embraces diversity, equity, and inclusion at all levels of our organization, and we strive for every employee to be comfortable being their authentic self at work. We are committed to building a team with a variety of backgrounds, identities, and ideas. We value greater inclusivity which yields greater achievements, fosters belonging, and improves access to high-quality health care for all as an essential human right.
