Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner (30 hours per week)

N.E.W. Community Clinic's mission is to provide access to quality, comprehensive, and compassionate healthcare for the underserved in our community. We provide healthcare services including medical, dental, mental healthcare, WIC, and community outreach services to anyone in our community who may be living in poverty or who may be underserved. We take care of people regardless of the ability to pay.

N.E.W. Community Clinic has two dental clinics, three medical clinics, two WIC locations, and a behavior health clinic in Green Bay, and we are seeking an experienced and empathetic Psychiatric Prescriber to join our enthusiastic team.

As a non-profit organization, it is about delivering quality, compassionate care. We have a diverse patient base, and you will learn about new cultures and languages, and experience the rewards of working with patients with many different backgrounds. We are always trying to bring care where it is needed most, and you will have the opportunity to take part in outreach services and unique experiences you will not find at a private office. Most importantly, you will be part of a fun-loving team that cares about one another as much as their patients.

N.E.W. Community Clinic believes that all people are entitled to equal employment opportunities. We follow all state, local, and federal laws prohibiting discrimination in all matters involving hiring and employment.
