Wood's Homes is looking for Therapeutic Caregivers (Home Fire Keepers) in Fort McMurray for our Therapeutic Foster Care Program.

Program Description:

Therapeutic Foster Care is a treatment model that provides daily care for children and young people – in a family environment – with a focus on building/maintaining cultural connection. The program considers cultural knowledge to be the foundation upon which family-based care is built.

The Significance of Home Fire Keepers:

Home Fire Keepers is derived from the ceremonial concept of ‘tending the Home Fires.’ The term ‘Home Fire Keeper’ reflects our belief in creating warm, supportive, safe environments where young people can reconnect with community, culture, and a sense of hope. This name honours Indigenous teachings, but it is open to anyone ready to make a meaningful difference. Role Summary:

As a Home Fire Keeper, you will provide in-home care to young people with complex needs who require a family based, culturally safe, placement that will help guide them in a successful transition out of the care of Children and Family Services. This includes opportunities to be an ally as you foster a child’s connection to their culture and supporting the values of Truth and Reconciliation.

Expectations:

Home Fire Keepers are fully supported by a team of youth specialists, cultural leads, and a clinician. Wood’s Homes Home Fire Keepers are: Highly valued partners and key contributors of a professional team while acting as the primary caregivers to the children and young people in their care. Responsive and relationally attuned caregivers with an understanding of trauma, healthy development, positive parenting, and quality caregiving.

Compensation:

Foster Caregivers will receive tax-free daily compensation starting at $.00/child. Participation in training will be compensated. Compensatory increases based on years of service.
