JOB OPENINGS
Mental Health and Addictions Case Manager
The Mental Health and Addictions program exists to support youth in their journey to
stabilize emotionally and mentally. Staff will work from a non-judgmental, harm-reduction
lens to meet youth where they are at and help them reach their mental health and
addictions goals. The Mental Health and Addictions program will be embedded throughout
all departments at RaY, ensuring that any participant engaging with RaY services has
access to appropriate mental health and addictions supports and system navigation. This
model is critical for the development of positive relationships with participants and staff,
creating an environment of understanding mental health and addictions in a non
stigmatizing way. Staff will also be required to manage critical cases by facilitating
connections to more intensive programs and services, including in the primary health care
system.
Level Up! Case Manager
Through the Level Up Program, RaY will assist at-risk youth who have become street-entrenched, marginalized, and often overlooked by other employment development programs. The Level Up program will actively recruit hard to reach youth and help them develop employability skills that will lead to paid employment or promote a return to school to complete education. The Case Manager will provide up to 160 youth with intensive case management support linking participants to internal and external resources that build on their goals within the Level Up programs and work placement experience. The Case Manager will provide technical, on-hands support and in-class resources as seen fit under the direction and supervision of the Director of Education and Training. RaY is a fast-paced environment which depends on reliable, open-minded, flexible and team oriented individuals to provide youth with what they need, on their terms, to better their lives.
