Springboard Centre for Adults with Disabilities (SBC) currently operates as a non-profit day program providing services for individuals with moderate to severe developmental disabilities, with the primary goal of empowering them to achieve meaning in their lives. These individuals may also display mild to moderate behavioral challenges. A wide range of on-site and community opportunities are offered to enhance each client’s physical, emotional, and mental well-being through personal development, community interaction, sensory integration, communication, and other age-related programming. The agency is committed to serving as a community model and sector partner for the integration, acceptance, and empowerment of people with disabilities.
The CDSW is a front-line community disability services role. The CDSW has a responsibility to support and facilitate the development of skills and competencies that will assist persons with disabilities to pursue and fulfill their goals, objectives and aspirations. The CDSW will be shadowing with an experienced staff for the first week and will then be assigned to work with individuals after that period. The CDSW will participate in the daily training activities at Springboard Centre.
After the successful completion of a 90 day probationary period, employees are eligible for an excellent benefits plan. The agency also offers additional benefits and incentives including personal days and family illness days beyond allocated vacation and sick time.
