About Us:


Atira Women's Resource Society, an award-winning nonprofit organization known for its inclusionary hiring practices and where a job is more than a pay cheque.

We offer the opportunity to work alongside a remarkable group of women working to make the world a more just place, one woman, one child, one home, one job at a time.


About the Job:


Reporting to the Program Manager, the Women's Health & Safety Liaison is responsible for responding to crisis including incidents of violence and other requests for support, primarily but not only in all-gender single-room occupancy/supportive housing settings.

You will provide one-to-one support, accompaniments, and advocacy and make resource referrals; supporting women in addressing their concerns regarding their health and safety and ensuring women remain safely and adequately housed.

You will also work with building managers and staff to address the challenges and meet the needs faced by women living in all-gender buildings and based on your conversations and work with women, make recommendations on improving women's health and safety.

You will maintain and submit accurate data and prepare a monthly report in collaboration with your co-workers.

About You:


You question actions inconsistent with our values and you treat everyone with fairness and respect independent of their status or disagreement with you.

You expect great things from yourself and your co-workers. You inspire others with your passion for women's anti-violence work and your eagerness for excellence.

You contribute to an environment where women can flourish and grow and you seek what is best for women, rather than what's best for you or your team.

You challenge the status quo to improve quality and sustainability and you take smart risks and make tough decisions without agonizing.


Resumes from qualified First Nations Métis and Inuk women are encouraged, as are resumes from Black women, women of colour, transgender women, women who are disabled, and women from other equity-seeking groups.

Fluency in a language(s) other than English is an asset.

Additional Requisites/Assets:

  • A valid First Aid Certificate is required
  • Non-Violent Crisis Intervention Certificate is an asset
  • Covid19 (including boosters) and annual flu vaccinations are required, unless with an exemption
