The Ridge Meadows Child Development Centre (RMCDC) is currently seeking a permanent part time (0.8 FTE) Director of Key Worker Services for our Family Connections Program. RMCDC is a community-based agency providing early intervention services to children, youth, and their families in the communities of Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows, and Katzie First Nation. Our Key Workers work as part of an interdisciplinary team, following a community based, family centered model and collaborate with both our RMCDC-based therapists as well as providers from various community agencies.

The Director of Key Worker services also provides frontline Key Worker services, assisting families in understanding FASD and other complex developmental behavioral conditions through the provision of education and information specific to the needs of the child and family, related training, and emotional and practical supports. Key Workers also assist families in accessing community-based supports, health, and education services, and act as a resource to community partners on FASD and CDBC. In addition, Key Workers facilitate caregiver support groups; one for families of elementary-aged children (6-12 years) with diagnoses of ADHD, the second for families raising children with FASD and related conditions. The Director of Key Worker services works flexible hours, which may include some evenings and weekends.
