Non-profit Program Coordinator - Toronto, Canada - Good Foot Delivery & Support Services

Description

About the Organization

Good Foot Delivery is a nonprofit and social enterprise that provides meaningful paid employment to the neurodivergent community through a professional Courier service, with all deliveries completed via public transit and on foot.

Not only does Good Foot provide training and employment to over 30 neurodivergent individuals as a Courier, the organization also works with every Courier on an ongoing basis to strengthen their skills and experience to maximize potential and overall independence.

Good Foot's new employment and training program Good Foot Forward extends beyond the Courier role, offering a hybrid learning opportunity for individuals interested in gaining transferable employability skills as well as work experience.

Small groups of participants learn and engage in an inclusive, supportive environment over the course of the 9 month program.

Good Foot is so much more than a job - we are a community that enables every Courier to feel connected, empowered and independent through tailored support, ongoing learning opportunities and social programs.
