Voice Up LCSW Program Manager - Founding Team 100% Remote

Licensed Social Work Program Manager Founding Team 100% Remote Proactive Safety Net & Community Impact Public Health Startup Role Overview This is a founding-level leadership opportunity within an emerging public health startup building a new model for preventative behavioral health and workforce development. The Licensed Social Work Program Manager will lead and supervise a cohort of 10 15 interns implementing a structured, community-based model that shifts the field: From reactive intervention To proactive, purpose-driven human development This role is ideal for a licensed social worker ready to step beyond traditional systems and help build a scalable solution that supports individuals before crisis occurs. Time Commitment Minimum: 2 hours per week Flexible, with opportunity to grow involvement as the program scales Compensation (Equity-Based) This is an early-stage startup role. Primary compensation: Equity ownership in the company and program Opportunity to join the founding team Direct influence on long-term strategy and national scale This is not a salaried role at this stage It is an opportunity to build and own part of a transformative public health system Why This Work Matters Behavioral health systems face workforce shortages, but the core issue is not a lack of people it is a lack of clear pathways connecting lived experience to meaningful roles. This model addresses the Naming Gap the missing link between experience, purpose, and action Within just 15 months, under minimal funding and no incentives, the model has demonstrated: 2,900+ participants across 900+ cities 5,000+ structured program engagements Integration into MPH and MSW programs within accredited institutions Active use within credit-bearing internship and practicum structures across the U.S. 27 verified producers creating real-world, institutionally adopted impact 1,350+ individuals directly impacted These are not theoretical partnerships these are already signed and operational institutional agreements, creating a clear pathway for national scaling. What You Will Do Lead & Supervise Oversee 10 15 interns facilitating structured sessions Ensure consistent delivery of the developmental model: Awareness Personalization Action Community Integration Apply Licensed Expertise Maintain ethical, non-clinical boundaries Ensure psychological safety across all environments Guide interns in real-world participant engagement Ensure Quality & Integrity Monitor facilitation quality and participant outcomes Prevent drift into reactive or deficit-based models Maintain a strengths-based, purpose-driven approach Develop Future Practitioners Train interns in facilitation, empathy, and structured engagement Translate academic theory into applied community impact Build & Scale Help expand an already validated model across institutions Contribute to scaling from 27 1,000+ impact producers Why This Role Is Different This is not traditional supervision. You are not managing caseloads You are helping build infrastructure for prevention at a national level Instead of serving individuals one at a time, you will: Multiply your impact through supervised cohorts Help scale a system already embedded in universities and communities Ideal Candidate Licensed Social Worker (LMSW, LCSW, LICSW, or equivalent) Experience in supervision, facilitation, or community-based work Interest in: Public health innovation Preventative care models Startup environments The Opportunity This is a ground-floor role in a high-potential public health startup with: Signed and scalable institutional agreements across the U.S. Proven validation across real-world, institutional, and academic environments Global reach and national expansion readiness An opportunity to earn equity Shape the model Help redefine how social work operates at scale Bottom Line: This role is for a licensed social worker ready to move upstream from responding to crisis to building systems that prevent it altogether. 4.
