Description

WHO WE ARE
Teen Challenge Canada Inc. operates 12-month in-residence alcohol and drug addiction rehabilitation programs with centres located in Alberta, Atlantic Canada, Saskatchewan and Ontario.

We offer help and hope to those struggling with alcoholism and/or addiction to other drugs through a proven faith-based program.

Those struggling with addiction, their family and friends, begin their restoration at Teen Challenge.

OUR VALUES

_We Are Christian_ We believe that God is the catalyst for change for people with life-controlling drug and alcohol problems.

_We Are Committed To Those Who Are Addicted_ We believe that a balance of love, accountability and training are required to prepare the individual for successful re-entry into society.

_We Value People_ Our students, donors, staff, volunteers, churches, board members and advisory councils are appreciated and worthy of respect and honour

_We Are Stewards_ We are committed to managing wisely all resources entrusted to us recognizing that we are ultimately accountable to God.
***The primary responsibility of the Outreach Support Worker is to build relationships with persons who are struggling with addiction (clients), who may be also marginalized and homeless, and/or are in need of support and resources. The work centre is the Teen Challenge Community Office, which is an inner city presence in the addictions community.

Responsibilities include fostering a safe, caring, supportive, nurturing, and healthy environment; and advocating for clients to address their issues related to addiction.
