Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Milestonemanor Inclusive Community Society Full time

I have been supporting an active autistic young man in the community for the last few years and will be going to part time in the near future.

This young man is very active but needs supports, an advocate and someone that believes in him.

We hike, swim, golf, go cart, go to museums and explore all parts of the lower mainland either by car or by transit.

He is also working with an agency to find work, which you will be part of implementing.


He requires a support worker to do between - 5 days per week or two support workers to share the shifts.

The position starts as soon as possible when the right person is found. He would prefer a male support worker; but isn't opposed to a female support worker


This young man has an incredible sense of humour, likes to listen to music, is interested in museums, learning and loves to have fun.

He is interested in trains and train museums, being in nature and having someone that likes to talk.

This is not a caregiver role, he doesn't need to be cared for, but supported. It would also be helpful if you lived near the North Shore as there is driving involved.
