"Great place to work”
Child and Youth Worker (Current Employee) – Huntsville, ON
I’ve had a great experience working with Connor Homes. They give high risk youth an amazing opportunity to grow up in a home-like atmosphere. There is nothing more rewarding then watching these youth grow and succeed and knowing that you were a part of this success.
Pros: “Co-workers are excellent Great management in my area Very rewarding job Great kids"
“Rewarding Place to Work!!”
Foster parent/ CYW (Current Employee) - Temiskaming Shores, ON
“Management and area supervisor have always been super supportive & understanding. This position has allowed me to become more mindful & empathetic.
With a focus on education, personal growth and team building, this company stays true to their word about providing residential services to individuals which allows them to grow and emerge”
“Advancing the Individual”
Current Employee (Current Employee) - London, ON
“Connor Homes has had an incredible success rate with assisting the growth of Children in care. Offering them a safe, secure family environment when some children have no one. Their foster parents are above all others, their dedication and determination always amazes me and goes above and beyond for children they consider theirs when no one else does. Their ability to in still positive self esteem and self worth really does make a difference. There are times where employees struggle with issues all other companies have, gossip, feeling overworked and unrewarded. There is no doubt this is a thankless job as the kids suffer from trauma and mental health issues however after being with the company for a long period of time, those same kids have shown their resilience and we celebrate their successes, they reach out to share their lives, sometimes to apologize for their childhood behavior. Overall this company has a real family appeal and right from the top of the the ranks, every member of the team is a valued member”
