Case Management

Gregory Brown

East Palestine TELEHEALTH

Gregory believes inside every person is an amazing desire to do good for themselves and others. Whatever the behavior you may see on the outside doesn’t reflect the person they are on the inside. He hopes to assist people in letting that good person within all of us not be hidden anymore through learning skill sets that assist in our overall behavioral needs.

After working in customer service for much of his young adulthood, Gregory really felt like he wasn’t making a difference. He left a management position with Dick’s Sporting Goods to work in a group home for kids recently released from incarceration. Through his years there, he became an Independent Living Coordinator assisting teenagers (14-18 years old) in learning social skills and independent living tasks they would need to know for their future. Gregory taught life skills including the following: cooking, doing laundry, changing a tire, filling out job applications, completing FASFA paperwork for college, and all things in between to help guide them to being able to complete their own daily needs. That position led to finding employment in the school settings as a behavioral specialist for six years; three working in Youngstown Schools and three working East Liverpool and East Palestine, before accepting his current position at Insight to be a Case Manager in East Palestine Schools.

Gregory has 10 years of experience in child care/mental health, ranging from Independent Living Coordination, to Behavioral Specialist, to Case Management.

When asked what Gregory believes he is awesome at, Gregory replied, “I fancy myself to be a good father, it’s a task I’m growing with every day in hope to lead my three sons into being kind hearted young men when they grow up. Outside of family, I used to be a very talented athlete, but that was about 10 years and 50 pounds ago.”
