FT Program Facilitator - Youth in Transition Program

CHIMO: Where What You Do Matters for A Lifetime. FT and Casual Includes some evenings and some Saturdays 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? 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. We open in December. 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? 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. We believe in supporting the people who make a difference every day. As a member of our team, you'll enjoy:    - Membership on a supportive team of skilled and passionate professionals dedicated to helping children, youth, and families reach their greatest potential. - Paid vacation starting at twelve (15) days per year. - Paid sick and wellness leave equivalent to eight (10) days per year. - Comprehensive health benefits following the successful completion of the 3-month probationary period. - Dental coverage after one (1) year of employment. - A Health Spending Account (HSA) to help cover eligible health-related expenses after the probationary period. - Access to our Employee and Family Assistance Program (EFAP), offering confidential counselling and wellness resources for employees and their immediate families. - Opportunities for ongoing professional development, training, and career growth. - Invitations to agency events, training and development, staff appreciation activities, celebrations. - A collaborative, inclusive, and values-driven workplace where your leadership and contributions make a meaningful impact every day. Job opening remains until suitable applicant is found.
