File #26-001

EveryMind Mental Health Services is currently recruiting for a skilled, experienced, and enthusiastic mental health professional for the position of Wraparound Facilitator to work with various programs and services to provide a continuum of mental health interventions to children/youth and their families on a full-time permanent role.

EveryMind is an accredited child and youth mental health organization that provides a continuum of high-quality mental health services for children, youth and their families who are experiencing or are at risk of experiencing mental health, social, emotional and/or behavioural challenges. Our services are provided in a dynamic, client-centred environment that values respect and inclusion, collaboration, learning, innovation, and accountability.

The Peel Wraparound Process is a team-based planning approach that is intended to provide families who experience emotional, social, behavioural, or mental health challenges with individualized, coordinated, family-centered care to meet the complex mental health needs of children and youth who are involved with other child/youth/family-serving systems (e.g., child welfare, youth justice, education, and healthcare). Wraparound’s strength-based planning approach helps families by developing a team of both formal and informal supports to “wrap around” them. Wraparound facilitators provide services to children, youth and their families in-home, in-school and in the community. Together with their team (family, friends, chosen providers), families work to identify their priority needs and to develop creative and practical strategies to meet these needs – strategies that are directly linked to the family, their team and the strengths and capabilities of the community.

This is a full-time permanent position.
