Employment Opportunity: Settlement Coordinator
The Council for Canada is recruiting two Settlement Coordinators as part of the Future Ready Initiative (FRI), one based in Durham or Ottawa, and one in Kitchener.
The aim of the FRI's Settlement Excellence Program is to enable newcomers to rebuild their lives in safety and security following forced displacement from countries of conflict and persecution. The rebuilding of lives requires the provision of various support services including orientation on arrival, obtaining legal status, access to social welfare benefits, language classes, housing support, finding employment, educational opportunities, access to health care, financial literacy, and integration within and outside the Jamat.
The Settlement Coordinator will ensure each individual and family has a Settlement Plan that enables a path to a positive settlement experience and enhanced quality of life.

The application deadline is Sunday May 12.
