Job Summary

Shuswap Children’s Association, originally the Shuswap Exceptional Children’s Association, was founded in 1982 by a group of parents of children with support needs who found they were unable to access services for their children.

Summer staff will help plan and transport youth to the activities and outings, and build relationships with youth through play and participation in both individual and group activities.
