When you get a call, you can be the one to make someone’s day better

Do you have a big heart, a little extra time, and a desire to make a difference in others’ lives?

As an on-call substitute in Adapted Services (TT), you’re more than just an extra resource. You’re an important source of support, a reassuring presence, and someone who helps create positive experiences and a sense of mastery in the daily lives of people with various support needs.

With us, you’ll have a flexible, meaningful job. You choose when you’re available to work, while gaining valuable experience, working with great colleagues, and enjoying a workday where no two days are exactly alike.

We provide services in several group homes with diverse resident groups and varying support needs. This is a joint job posting for several of our housing facilities, and we’re looking for someone who can step in when needed. Several of the facilities also use long shifts on both weekdays and weekends.

We think you’d be a great fit with us if you:

• can step in when needed
• are flexible and solution-oriented
• want to make a positive difference for others
• treat people with respect, care, and dedication
• enjoy varied workdays

Does this sound like you?
Then we hope you’ll apply!

Applications are reviewed on an ongoing basis, and we’ll contact you if you’re a good fit for the position.

Sometimes it only takes one person to make a big difference. Maybe that’s you?
