Case Manager Cover Letter Example

The clients who walk into a case manager's office usually need several things at once, and helping them put those pieces together is what I find most meaningful about this work. Bridgeview Community Services' holistic, client-centered approach is why I am applying for your Case Manager position.

As a case manager at Community Support Services, I carry a caseload of more than 50 clients and build an individualized plan with each of them; 85% reach the goals we set together. I work with more than 20 community agencies to secure housing, employment and healthcare, and I keep those relationships warm so a referral turns into an appointment rather than a voicemail. I have also trained 15 new case managers on documentation standards and client engagement.

I started as a case manager assistant at Hope Alliance, supporting senior case managers with a caseload of 40 and making sure no follow-up or referral slipped. My proactive outreach and early intervention work there helped reduce client crises by 30%, which showed me how much a timely phone call can prevent. I hold a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of Illinois at Chicago.

It would be good to learn more about the families Bridgeview works with and the gaps your team sees most often. Thank you for considering my application.
