Calgary, Canada The Calgary John Howard Society Full time

**The Agency**

The Calgary John Howard Society (CJHS) is a charity that reduces crime and makes Calgary communities safer by helping youth and adults make positive changes and move away from criminal behaviour. We do this by addressing the root causes of crime through housing, education, employment programs and support so that individuals have alternatives to breaking the law. CJHS is committed to restorative justice and an organizational environment that recognizes the dignity and worth of each person. CJHS values diversity and inclusion and welcomes qualified applicants from all walks of life.

**The Program**

Bedford House is a Community Residential Facility (CRF) for men on a federal conditional release. It has 32 apartments and utilizes an independent living model while providing support, intensive case management and connections to appropriate community services. Practices are rooted in the CJHS Practice Framework Principles of trauma-informed care, cultural respect and inclusion, restoration and transformation, natural supports and social inclusion and harm reduction. Bedford House works closely with our funder and partner the Correctional Service of Canada, to ensure the residents have the appropriate support and supervision to make positive changes and address the factors contributing to their criminal behaviours.

**The Position**

The Caseworker will work in an integrated and collaborative way within the Bedford House team, wider CJHS team, the Calgary Parole Office, and the community to ensure Bedford House residents are supported in their integration journeys and are afforded the opportunity to address individual risk factors. Reporting to the Team Leader, the Caseworker is responsible for the case management of residents, day-to-day shift duties and resident support and supervision. They will have an assigned caseload and will work closely with individual residents to conduct assessments, goal setting and action planning utilizing a strength-based, trauma-informed approach. The Caseworker will support all residents of Bedford House with day-to-day activities, referrals and other informal therapeutic interventions. The ability to adapt to both routine and crisis situations as they arise is vital to the role. As this is a residential facility, shift work and other duties will be required, including basic household chores.

Brain Story Certification considered an asset.

This is a full-time position (40 hours per week) that requires shift work (primarily daytime and evening; however, also the occasional overnight). The Caseworker will participate in an On-Call rotation. A current criminal record check and an enhanced reliability screening (through the Government of Canada) are required.
