Community Reach Center reviews about "diversity"

Tone deaf C-level leaders who will rarely, if ever, admit mistakes or attempt repair with staff. Almost toxic belief that there should be no barriers for consumers to access treatment that ultimately translates to dangerously high caseloads for clinicians, and then clinicians and managers are blamed for not managing caseloads or churning cases fast enough. At one time there was amazing diversity in programming for all levels of acuity and need, but closure of programs, spats with state and local partners, massive staff resignations, and unnecessarily difficult internal referral processes have diminished higher LOC options to the point of outpatients and school based services drowning in high risk, high acuity consumers being served at inappropriate levels of care. As mentioned, pay is mostly fair but still lags behind competition with poor internal equity, no incentive for additional licensure (e.g. no differential for LAC), no incentive to attract LP or LCSW that’s are needed for Medicare billing as they are paid the same as other licensed staff, and no incentive to develop clinicians interested in supervisory or management tracks as they are not offered differentials to supervise other license candidates. I’m short, everyone is overworked and constantly on the brink of burnout, so it’s a good thing the PTO is so good. Low cultural diversity - mostly white, European ethnicity workforce; few bi-cultural, bilingual clinical staff despite serving a large proportion of Spanish speaking consumers.

They kept a client who made threats to my and my partner's well-being, despite my advocating for myself. When I advocated for myself, my words were twisted to make it seem like I was in the wrong. They didn't even give me options to help the situation. This place is not a friendly place to work because there is a lack of diversity and an abundance of microaggressions
