Chilliwack, Canada Bethesda Full time

As a support worker in an intentional community, you will support and assist people in an attractive and modern 9-unit townhouse community in Chilliwack, BC.

In an intentional community, each person is free to make choices about how to live, when and who visits, if and where they work, which activities to participate in, how they decorate their homes, what they eat, and which friendships and relationships they pursue. With their shared core values and goals, they strengthen and build each other up, fostering unity within diversity.

You will join a team committed to helping the people you support live as full and self-directed lives as possible in such areas as emotional and spiritual well-being, interpersonal relationships, material well-being, and social inclusion.
You must have the desire and capacity to support people with diverse abilities and must believe that the person receiving support is uniquely valuable.

Bethesda is committed to leadership development at all levels and offers opportunities for emerging leaders to learn and practice through a unique Leader-in-Training program, as well as leadership roles within the support worker position.
