Job Description:
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) - Camp LeJeune, Sneads
Ferry, NC - Secret Clearance Required The United States Special
Operations Command (USSOCOM) is a Unified Combatant Command of the
Department of Defense (DoD). USSOCOM's mission is to "Provide fully
capable Special Operations Forces to defend the United States and
its interests." This also includes three command priorities:
"Deter, Disrupt, and Defeat Terrorist Threats; Develop and Support
our People and Families; and Sustain and Modernize the Force".
These priorities support USSOCOM's ongoing efforts to ensure SOF
are highly trained, properly equipped and deployed to the right
places at the right times for the right missions. The USSOCOM
Preservation of the Force and Family (POTFF)'s mission is to build
and implement a superior holistic approach to address the pressure
on the force and also the increased stress on operators' families.
POTFF's mission is accomplished by increasing the physical, mental,
social, and spiritual capacity of the SOF over their careers,
decreasing the rate of physical and emotional injuries from all
causes, and significantly accelerating return to duty times. POTFF
will identify and implement innovative, persistent and valuable
solutions across the USSOCOM enterprise aimed at tangibly improving
career long occupational capacity, enduring health and ability to
remain highly resistant to extreme combat and inter-deployment
stress. USSOCOM is implementing a set of initiatives designed to
enhance the resilience and well-being of SOF and their families
throughout the USSOCOM enterprise. These initiatives are largely
preventive in nature and are intended to reduce incidences of
behavioral health problems throughout the force. The POTFF
initiative consists of four primary lines of effort (LoE): Human
Performance (HP), Behavioral Health, Spiritual Enhancement, and
Social/Family Programs. The program's end state is to prepare,
preserve, sustain and ultimately multiply USSOCOM's combat power by
application of integrated inter-disciplinary personal services
teams. These teams shall consist of Government Program Management
personnel supported by contractor personnel. The intent of this
contract is to organize contractor support for human performance
and behavioral health services in order to augment DoD and Service
programs. These services shall be provided at the individual and
operational team or company level under the management of the
Government COR via individual task orders (TO). It is the
Government's responsibility to ensure these programs are
successfully implemented with the use of contractor personnel.
Purpose and Objective The overall purpose of this requirement is to
provide the USSOCOM Preservation of the Force and Family (POTFF)
Programs with services to accomplish the aforementioned mission and
associated tasks related to the Behavioral Health, Human
Performance and Social/Family Programs LoEs. The overarching
objective of this requirement is to provide the services needed to
increase the physical and behavioral capacity and resilience of SOF
Warriors, with consideration of their families. This will be
accomplished by providing state-of-the-art, professional services
in two major domains: human performance and behavioral health.
Human performance includes, but is not limited to, integrated,
performance-based strength and conditioning programs,
rehabilitative and pre-habilitative programs that will accelerate
the return to duty of those encumbered by performance related
injuries. Behavioral health programs include, but are not limited
