North Vancouver, Canada North Shore Community Resources Full time

Founded in 1976, North Shore Community Resources’ (NSCR) mission is to enhance well-being, social connections, empowerment and community participation by designing and delivering programs and services to create a thriving North Shore. To achieve this mission, we provide community programs and services in four areas: Child and Parent programs, Seniors programs, Community Engagement, and Community Legal Services and Housing Advocacy. To learn more about NSCR, see our Annual Report.

NSCR is looking for two engaging and dynamic leaders to facilitate our North Shore Young Civic Forum (the Forum). The first position is for the Lead Facilitator who is responsible for the overall organization and delivery of the Forum. The second position is for a Co-Facilitator who will assist the Lead Facilitator in convening and facilitating the Forum.

The North Shore Young Civic Forum is program within NSCR’s Democracy Café program which works to encourage residents and citizens to participate in our democracy while governments create meaningful opportunities for participation. The fourth cohort of the Forum is scheduled to begin in early 2024. The Forum provides a platform for younger adults (aged 18-39) who live, work or study on the North Shore to learn more about local governments and how to better influence their decision making. For more information on Democracy Café and the North Shore Young Civic Forum, see our website.
