The John Howard Society of Durham Region (JHSD) is a non-profit, social service agency dedicated to serving all individuals, families, youth and adults in programs in areas such as Community Justice, Employment and Training and Housing/ Residential Services.
Role:
This position is a combination of two positions:
The
EJM Program is designed for youth that fall under the Youth Criminal Justice Act (age 12 to 17 years of age) as an alternative approach to the court system.
Young persons in conflict with the law (pre-charge), may be diverted to this service as a measure that helps the individual to better understand the impact of their actions on others.
Youth participate in group or individual programming to learn about the social, financial and personal costs of crime to themselves, their families, peers and community.
Close communication with Durham Regional Police is undertaken to ensure program participants follow-through with expectations and outcomes from the service.
This role will act as back up to the
Direct Accountability Program to facilitate adult Pre and Post charge diversion program.
It involves the participant being held accountable through community-based assigned tasks (sanctions) such as paying restitution, making a charitable donation, completing volunteer work, providing an apology, and attending an educational or intervention program.

This entails processing referrals, monitoring completion of sanctions and reporting the outcome back to the court or referring police officer, and completing all required documentation.
Tasks:
You will be working on things like:
Service User Support
- Conduct general intake/assessment.
- Facilitate shortterm cognitive behaviouralbased groups to address anger management and theft related issues as per police referrals for youth in EJM
- Provide shortterm individual counselling where applicable to address issues including but not limited to selfesteem, family and relationship issues, parental conflict, depression/mental health, peer relationships and bullying type behaviours for youth in EJM
- Facilitate DAP (direct accountability) client sanctions, follow up and referrals, report progress to the court
- Refer to programs and services that will help address issues that brought individuals in conflict with the law
