Job Order Detail

Description

We invite applicants to apply for a full time position within our well known and well recognized Newcomer Intensive Family Support Program.

The Newcomer Intensive Family Support Program provides case management to Newcomers in Regina who are experiencing multiple barriers to social settlement. Areas that become risk factors for Newcomers include isolation, family conflict, experiences of racism, addictions, trauma, and mental and physical health complexities. These risk factors increase for Newcomers as they become immersed into their communities and often times lack the knowledge of how or where to connect for support.

The family support worker will deliver in-home case management support to families to address risk factors and connect them to formal and informal supports. The services provided will strengthen Newcomer families independence, wellness and confidence in their new environment. These prevention and early intervention services will promote healthy families, child safety, healthy adult relationships, and focus on connection to community resources. This program hopes to help aide the settlement process for families as well. The program will build individualized plans in partnerships with the families, while promoting positive settlement in Saskatchewan.

We seek to attract organized, committed and compassionate people. Our culture is one of a collegial work environment that fosters respect and commitment to the overall goals of Rooted Connections. If you feel you are the right fit for our organization, please apply.

Degree in Human Services field and/or experience with direct client services required.

Fluency in a second language and experience working with newcomers would be assets.
