  • Creative problem-solving abilities.
  • Flexibility and adaptability in ambiguous situations.
  • Experience in providing support through a trauma-informed lens.

The candidate will ensure a safe, clean, and secure environment for youth, demonstrating a harm reduction approach and proficiency in suicide intervention and safety planning. Additionally, the candidate will engage with community support networks.

What You Bring

  • A Certificate, Degree, or Diploma in Child & Youth Care or a related Human Services field.
  • A minimum of 5 years of experience working directly with high-risk and at-risk youth.
  • 3-5 years of experience in a leadership role within a high-risk demographic in a shelter environment.
  • 1-2 years of experience in strategic planning.
  • 1-3 years of experience in training, supporting, and mentoring staff.
  • Proficiency in MS Office applications and ETO.
  • Understanding of the values and practices of Aboriginal and diverse cultural groups.
  • CYCAA Child and Youth Care certification is an asset.

Prerequisites

  • Training in first aid and mental health first aid.
  • Non-violent crisis intervention training.
  • Training in suicide intervention and harm reduction.
  • Trauma-Informed Care training.
  • Person-Centered Planning training.
  • Clear police clearance and Child and Youth Intervention checks, both obtained recently.
