These are not desk jobs — staff will partake in activities with our clients either on a one-to-one basis or in a group setting. All applicants will need to have a Class 5 license, clean driving record and a reliable vehicle to transport clients as well as a valid First Aid (Emergency First Aid – Community Care or equivalent). Some of the activities staff partake in will include swimming, hiking, walking, and other physical activities dependent on the individual goals of the client(s) they work with. Applicants must be comfortable enough in the water to swim with the person(s) they are working with, and are responsible to transport the person they serve to and from their activities.
School and Community Support Worker – Staff in this role work in our School Based Program (5-12 years), Extended Program (6-18 years) and Summer Program (5 – 18 years). Each child has an individualized plan that focuses on their goals, and staff work with them to achieve those goals. Applicants are required to have completed at least a 1 year post-secondary Certificate with at least 20 hours of child development experience. Examples include Teaching Assistant/Teachers Aide Certification, School and Community Support Certification, Human Services Certification and Early Childhood Education Certification. This certificate must be in a related field due to the programs that we work within. Apply Online
