    Default job background
    Description
    These four words capture perhaps the most important thing you need to know about us. We believe that every human has the right to live free of fear... and feel safe, respected, supported and loved.

    Our goal is to help people to have violence-free lives, to live without fear, and get to the ultimate outcome – love.

    We are looking for people who want to be part of changing the conversation about domestic violence and abuse. We have evolved from our beginnings as the Calgary Women's Emergency Shelter. We are relentless in our commitment to our clients, our communities and each other. We are looking for a relief Shelter/Helpline Counsellor to work in our Shelter Program. This position is a union position working on an on-call basis to cover a variety of shifts.

    Please note that applicants MUST be available for weekday overnight shifts, and working these shifts is a compulsory aspect of the position.

    As a Relief Counsellor you will support your peers that work on a regular basis to provide coverage while permanent staff are required to attend staff meetings, retreats, training and other duties.

    The majority of shifts will be scheduled in advance but there will also be times when you will be called in on short notice.

    As a Relief Shelter Counsellor, you will provide crisis counselling (individual and/or group counselling), maintain case files daily, and develop safety plans.

    screen phone calls, use electronic security systems, and meet daily to get to know each client and support them through their challenges.

    You will not only act on behalf of your client, but in your role you will contribute to your team by consulting and working with staff and volunteers to facilitate the integration of all programs which clients may participate in, including child support, community, and other programs.

    As a Relief Helpline Counsellor telephone skill are you're biggest asset. You will provide telephone crisis counselling, assessment, and intervention to assist women who are fleeing family violence. How you sound on the phone will help clients feel safe and validated.

    Being open and willing to hear and listen to others is one of the biggest assets you can bring to our team.

    Diploma in Social Sciences.

    A minimum of two (2) years' previous experience in any of the following areas is required: domestic violence, Children's Services, homelessness, or addictions/mental health issues.

    Previous experience working within Scott Miller's Feedback Informed Treatment is an asset.
    Strong communication skills (oral and written) in English. A second language would be an asset.
    A flexible work schedule is essential, with the ability to work a variety of weekday and weekend shifts. Priority will be given to those that are able to work on weekends and overnight.
    Ongoing training and development is a required condition of this position.
    Effective January 1st, 2022 being fully vaccinated against Covid-19 is a condition of employment.
    In accordance with Canadian immigration requirements, priority will be given to Canadian citizens and permanent residents of Canada.
    FearIsNotLove is committed to diversity, equity and inclusion. We encourage qualified candidates from all genders, religious, ethnic and social backgrounds to apply.
    We regret that we are unable to accept telephone inquiries.
