About cyrc
- Where What You Do Matters for A Lifetime.
- Can you hold a room, make people feel welcome, and help with a housing application at the drop-in help desk, all in the same afternoon?
Benefits
- Leaving care at 18 often means facing rent, jobs, bills and loneliness all at once.
- Chimo's new Youth in Transition (YIT) Program is a place young adults aged 18 to 24 can come for the skills, information and people that make it easier.
- We're looking for Program Facilitators to make it a place they want to come back to.
- Think of the program as a weekly menu of drop-in sessions: a hands-on housing application walkthrough, an honest conversation about substance use and harm reduction, a workshop on healthy relationships and boundaries, practice job interviews, a tax clinic, a ribbon skirt circle.
- There's food at every session and a help desk six days a week.
- FT and Casual Includes some evenings and some Saturdays What you'll do Plan and lead group sessions young adults actually want to come to Welcome people at the door, share food, and check in Staff the help desk: forms, phone calls, applications, next steps Become the team's Champion in one area: housing, employment and education, financial literacy, health and wellness, or culture and identity What you bring A diploma or degree in Child and Youth Care, Social Work, or a related human services field At least a year of leading groups, workshops or programs with youth or young adults Warmth, steadiness, and a sense of humour Lived experience of care or of the transition to adulthood?
CHIMO
- We open in December.
- That's an asset here.
Good to know
You'll need clear Intervention Record and Police Information (Vulnerable Sector) checks. We provide the training you'll need before you start working with young adults. Driving is an asset, not a requirement. Job opening remains until suitable applicant is found.
