About Us

The Community Living Society (CLS) is a pioneering non-profit organization dedicated to empowering adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities to lead fulfilling lives. Since 1978, we have been at the forefront of providing innovative, person-centered support services that foster independence, productivity, and meaningful relationships.

About the Opportunity

We are seeking a motivated and compassionate support worker to join our team. As a support worker, you will play a vital role in empowering an individual to live a fulfilling and increasingly independent life. Your passion for person-centered supports will enable you to help the individual discover new life skills, explore their community, and achieve their goals.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Providing personalized support to help individuals achieve their life goals
  • Assisting with daily living tasks, including personal care, meal preparation, and light housekeeping
  • Accompanying individuals on community outings, such as volunteering, employment, and leisure activities
  • Maintaining accurate records of daily activities and goal progression
Available Positions

We have two permanent positions available: a part-time position and a full-time position with varied shifts.

About You

We are looking for an individual who is passionate about supporting others and has a strong understanding of the person-centered and active support approach. To be successful in this role, you will require:

  • A Class 5 driver's license (permanent staff must be willing to obtain a Class 4 license)
  • A First Aid and CPR Certificate
  • A clear criminal record (paid by CLS)
  • A clean driver's abstract

While experience in high behavioral support is an asset, we encourage applicants from diverse backgrounds to apply. We offer a range of training opportunities, including Nonviolent Crisis Intervention Training and Mandt System.

Our Commitment to You

We are committed to creating a progressive and inclusive work environment that values diversity, equity, and accessibility. As an equal opportunity employer, we strive to provide a safe and respectful workplace for all employees and supported individuals. We thank all applicants for their interest; however, only short-listed candidates will be contacted for an interview.
