Who We Are
At BeConnected Support Services, we believe every adult deserves a life full of choice, connection, and community — not just a service plan. We're a CARF-accredited, CLBC-contracted agency built around one simple idea: inclusion happens in real places, doing real things, with real people.
Our teams show up every day to help the people we support learn new skills, build friendships, explore their neighbourhoods, and pursue the goals that matter to them. We take dignity of risk seriously, we champion self-advocacy, and we're always looking for better, more creative ways to help people belong.
If you're the kind of person who gets energized by watching someone discover a new skill, build a friendship, or lead their own goal-setting conversation — you'll fit right in here.
The Opportunity
We're looking for a Day Program Coordinator to plan, lead, and grow our community inclusion programming. You'll design activities that build real skills — cooking, computer literacy, art, music — while supervising and mentoring a team of front-line staff who bring that programming to life every day.
This is a senior coordination role with real creative latitude: you'll shape what community inclusion looks like at BeConnected, build partnerships across the community, and make sure every participant's plan reflects who they are, not a template.
A Day in This Role
- Develop and facilitate activity schedule centred on health, learning, and community engagement
- Coach and mentor direct support staff in person-centred active support and fostering natural supports
- Supervise, train, schedule, and complete performance reviews for your team
- Facilitate annual Person-Centred Plans aligned with CLBC outcomes, and lead quality reviews
- Oversee risk assessments and safety planning for community outings and transportation
- Build new partnerships with local organizations, recreation centres, and businesses to expand opportunities
- Represent the program at Integrated Case Management (ICM) meetings with CLBC and community partners
- Keep documentation, monthly financial records, and reporting sharp and current
- Manage intake, transition, and discharge for participants
- Champion participant leadership, self-advocacy, and community belonging
What You Bring
- A degree in Social Work, Psychology, Education, Counseling, or a related field — or equivalent experience
- A track record of training, mentoring, and bringing out the best in a team
- Experience developing and monitoring performance improvement plans
- Sharp organizational skills — you keep documentation clear without letting it slow you down
- A natural collaborator, comfortable building relationships with families, agencies, and community partners
- A genuine belief in person-centred practice and the dignity of risk
Why You'll Want to Stay
- Purpose you can see. Your work shows up directly in someone's Tuesday afternoon cooking class, their first solo bus trip, their new friendship at the rec centre.
- Room to lead. You'll shape programming and partnerships, not just administer them.
- A team that has your back. You'll work closely with our CEO, Director of Programs & Service Quality, HR, and fellow Coordinators — this isn't a role you do alone.
- A predictable, people-first schedule. Monday–Thursday, 9–3 — built for work-life balance.
We provide a comprehensive, benefits package, optional Municipal Pension Plan participation, and Long-Term Disability coverage.
