Tier 2 System Navigators

Tier 2 System Navigators address concerns that are more complex than just needing information on where to find services. Individuals may need support in identifying concerns, and accessing support services that require more than a one-time interaction.

Tier 2 System Navigators help by:

  • Building upon Tier 1 System Navigator skills

  • Establishing a professional relationship with the individual

  • Assisting individuals to identify concerns and create goals to address those concerns

  • Use screening and/or wellbeing tools

  • Providing check-ins to support individuals in achieving their goals

  • Understand and refer when situations require further support from a Population Supports Navigator

  • Using ICA referral pathways
