4 months ago

Toronto, Canada Gerstein Crisis Centre Full time

**Position Title**:Access Facilitator, TCCS Project, full-time, fixed-term

**Reports to**:Manager, TCCS

**Salary**: $66,105 per annum with comprehensive benefits package

**Employment end date**: December 31, 2025, with possibility of extension

**Closing Date**:Friday, September 13th, 2024 - 9:00 a.m.

**Background**:Toronto Community Crisis Service (TCCS) is a community safety and crisis support service program operated by service partners across Toronto. Gerstein Crisis Centre is the anchor for the downtown project. In July 2024, services will expand to include geographies east, west, and south of the downtown core.

Gerstein Crisis Centre (GCC) believes strongly that a model in which the earliest intervention for mental health need is provided by a mental health worker, rather than the police service, can provide opportunities to access the services people want and need to leverage help sooner, while reducing stigma, discrimination, and unnecessary police involvement. Our experience over the past three decades has demonstrated that this early intervention can put needed supports in place and often avoid unnecessary interactions with emergency services such as hospitals and police.

Gerstein Centre’s involvement in TCCS builds on our many years of experience and commitment to collaborate, partner, and ally with others across the city to build a strengths-based, integrated, accessible, community-based, anti-racist and socially-just crisis response system.

**Job Summary**: The Access Facilitator receives requests for the Toronto Community Crisis Service Mobile Team from multiple access points including 211 and 911; provides immediate telephone intervention and facilitates access to a mobile team visit in the community, leveraging all crisis services to provide a timely response. The Access Facilitator assists in coordination of crisis follow-up and provides a central point of access for follow-up communication.
