About the role

CHIMO: Where What You Do Matters for A Lifetime. Days, evenings and weekends Sometimes a young adult just needs someone alongside them for a while. Could that be you? Chimo's new Youth in Transition (YIT) Program supports young adults aged 18 to 24 as they leave government care. Our Transition Coordinators provide short-term, goal-focused 1:1 support for up to 90 days at a time: coaching someone through a housing application or a budget until they can do it themselves, staying steady through a crisis, building a safety plan, or working through whatever is getting in the way of taking part in our group programming. Our first young adults arrive in early November. What you'll do - Build a working relationship quickly with each young adult referred to you - Help them make real progress on their goals, step by practical step - Connect them with community supports, and with our group programming where it fits, so the progress lasts - Support group programming sessions when your caseload allows - What you bring - A diploma or degree in Child and Youth Care, Social Work, or a related human services field - At least a year supporting youth or young adults with complex needs - Patience, organization, and the ability to stay calm when things get hard - Lived experience of care or of the transition to adulthood? That's an asset here. - Good to know:  You'll need a clear Intervention Record and Police Information (Vulnerable Sector) checks.

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.
