**About Us**

The Calgary Drop-In and Rehab Centre (“the DI”) is a low-barrier, housing-focused shelter that serves some of the city's most vulnerable people. At the DI, we focus on providing a person's basic needs, while doing everything possible to find them a permanent, safe home that meets their individual needs. There is no greater contribution you can make to another person's path of recovery and wellness than an ongoing, consistent, positive relationship of respect and kindness. The DI works within the core values of housing first, trauma-informed care, and harm reduction to support staff and guests.

You will assist in assessing the needs of each individual client and collaborate with other ACW's, Case Management, Diversion, Supportive Housing and the Medical team. All interactions with clients will be done in a trauma informed manner and a client centered approach. The ACW role is a rotating role. Meaning, all ACWs must be able to work in all areas of the facility at anytime during a shift.
