Work hours at the CAC will include crisis intervention and participation in multidisciplinary case staffings in addition to providing individual and family therapy. Additional service hours may take place at our Glen Carbon or Alton offices. Starting salary range is 45K to 55K annually depending on licensure, training, and experience with relevant populations.
