Calgary, Canada Wood's Homes Full time

We Never Say No. We Never Give up. We Never Turn Anyone Away.

Wood’s Homes is searching for one (1) full-time Foster Care Support Worker to join our Foster Care Network Program.

Wood’s Homes Foster Care Network Program offers youth a stable home-like environment and the opportunity to transition from intensive residential treatment to more full-realized community living. This program offers a number of foster home and group living arrangements, with the goal of ensuring that our youth are positively transitioning into adults and leaning all the skills necessary to living on their own as adults.

**Role Summary**:
Reporting to the Manager of our Foster Care Network Program, the Foster Care Support Worker is responsible for therapeutic and support services to children, youth and their foster families in order to promote family-based care.

Although the primary focus is with Foster Care, the Support Worker may be deployed in education, residential or community services. The Foster Care Support Worker will demonstrate due diligence in being exceptional in the delivery of high-quality services and in meeting the requirements of the Health and Safety Management System at Wood’s Homes.
