About who we support:

About the role:

The John Howard Society of Ottawa has opened a brand-new permanent supportive housing program in the heart of Centretown on Lisgar Street.

This program is a 29-unit apartment residence designated for adult women who have exited chronic homelessness.

Developing strong, consistent, and engaging rapport with the women is most important. Staff are encouraged to share their ideas and creativity to implement activities of any kind.

This is your opportunity to champion exceptional care and acceptance for women of all backgrounds.

It is an exciting role that requires compassion and understanding for the unique challenges faced by women exiting chronic homelessness, strong critical thinking and boundary setting skills, creativity, and a passion for developing a resilient and safe community for vulnerable women.
