Primary Duties and Responsibilities

Venice Family Clinic is a leader in providing comprehensive, high-quality primary health care to people in need with compassion, dignity, and respect. In November 2021, Venice Family Clinic merged with South Bay Family Health Care, uniting more than a century of experience helping patients regardless of their income, insurance, or immigration status. The organization now has more than 500 staff who serve 45,000 people from the Santa Monica Mountains through the South Bay. We have 17 locations plus two mobile clinics and an expansive street medicine program for people experiencing homelessness. Read more about us at venicefamilyclinic.org.

Come join our dedicated and caring team of Substance Use, Motivation, Medication Integrated Treatment (SUMMIT) professionals as a SUMMIT Case Manager. Use your expertise to make a difference in the community while growing your career. With guidance from our SUMMIT Director of Behavioral Health Services, the Summit Case Manager will work independently to coordinate the delivery of substance abuse treatment services to our patients in a primary health care clinic.  

The case manager will:

  • Support Summit patients after substance abuse treatment visits, arrange for follow-up appointments, and coordinate MAT appointments. 
  • Provide high-quality case management for patients experiencing challenges around homelessness, substance use, and attaining other resources, by linking them and helping them achieve their identified goals. 
  • Ensure that patients are linked to care by following up after missed appointments. 
  • Act as a liaison between the medical provider and the patient. 
  • Operate in a multi-disciplinary team and have patients referred to them from medical and mental health providers as well as community agencies. 
  • Work independently but consult on challenging cases with their supervisor.


Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are core values of the Venice Family Clinic. We believe the professional and clinical environments are enhanced when diverse groups of people with diverse ideas come together.
