**About Us**:
The Office of the Child and Youth Advocate (OCYA) is an Office of the Legislature. Our Office provides advocacy for children and youth receiving or seeking to receive services under the _Child, Youth and Family Enhancement Act_ and the _Protection of Sexually Exploited Children Act_, and youth involved with the youth justice system. The OCYA is also responsible for providing legal representation for young people in matters related to the _Child, Youth and Family Enhancement Act_ and the _Protection of Sexually Exploited Children Act_. The OCYA conducts investigations and reports on issues arising from the serious injury to or death of a young person. The OCYA engages stakeholders in understanding the importance of respecting young people’s individual and collective rights, interests, and viewpoints, as well as delivers public education.

The Office of the Child and Youth Advocate is committed to a diverse and inclusive public service that reflects the population we serve to best meet the needs of Albertans. We are committed to an inclusive workplace that welcomes, respects and values the diversity of our employees. We also support them to be actively engaged in the workplace and the work we do to meet the needs of Alberta's young people.

As a Program Assistant with the OCYA, you’ll quickly learn that you don’t have to be on the front line of advocacy to make a difference in young people’s lives. Your strong administrative and organizational skills will help ensure the program area is supported in working with their partners and other stakeholders. You will collaborate with others to provide superior administrative support to the organization.

**Qualifications**:
A high school diploma with at least two years of administrative support experience in an office setting. Experience providing administrative support to a group a professionals including, calendaring, and coordinating travel arrangements. Strong proficiency and experience working with electronic and paper records management systems. Strong proficiency and experience with Microsoft Office suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook). Strong communication skills and attention to detail.

Given the overrepresentation of Indigenous young people in the child intervention and youth justice systems, preference will be given to individuals who self-identify as Indigenous and are known to others as Indigenous or who have had extensive experience working with Indigenous peoples and communities.
