Job Description:

This position’s primary role is to provide, in conjunction with the Evolve team, is to provide frontline services and psychosocial support to service participants and their families who are disengaging from, or impacted by, hate-motivated violence and extremism. The Evolve program serves a wide range of ages, though this position focuses on supporting youth who may be exposed to online harms, exploitation, radicalization, and violent extremism. As the work may involve exposure to difficult and distressing content, candidates should have a genuine interest in this field and an awareness of the importance of personal resilience and wellness. The caseworker will be responsible for working with service participants, primarily in Edmonton and surrounding areas.

Employing recognized good practices and working within the intervention model of the organization, the caseworker will work to create safety and stability for service participants and the wider community. This will involve work with complex service participants and co-ordination with other community-based organizations and government partners. The successful applicant will play a leading role in building relationships with service participants and developing intervention plans that can meet the unique needs of service participants and their families. This requires a reflexive approach to needs and vulnerabilities in domains such as mental health and social identity, incorporating trauma-informed and strength-based approaches.

Opportunities may also arise for research and report writing, which will involve the collection and analysis of interviews, surveys and quantitative data. The caseworker must be highly self-motivated and capable of following through on tasks independently, while also being able to work in a collaborative and team-based environment.

Responsibilities and Duties:

Provide direct supports and services (e.g., assessment, casework, counseling) to individuals and families involved with, disengaging from, or impacted by hate, hate crimes and/or violent extremism whether in-person, online, phone, email, text.
Create case plans that are focused on an assessment of risks, needs, strengths, and protective factors.
