The Opportunity

Integrated Youth Services (IYS) is a service model that offers low barrier access to community-led services for youth aged 12 to 25 and their caregivers. IYS provides early intervention, prevention, and care regarding mental health and substance use, as well as coordinated access to other services.

Each IYS site provides rapid access to high quality, youth-appropriate, evidence-informed supports and services. Youth can access services in person, by telephone, or through a virtual platform. The overall goal of Integrated Youth Services is to transform how young people access mental health care and services.

The following are important principles that guide the Anchor Youth Space model:

· Youth and caregiver participation in the design, implementation, and evaluation of services.

· The co-location and integration of services, including mental health and addictions care, primary health care, community and peer support, and social services.

· Continuity of services from age 12 to age 25, including supporting youths’ transition to adult services.

· Services that are culturally responsive, accessible, high quality, youth-centred, and evidence-informed.

· Stepped care to ensure the appropriate levels of care, at the right time, by the right provider.

· Ongoing collaboration among all Anchor Youth Space Nova Scotia sites and the Anchor Youth Space Nova Scotia Provincial Leadership Team.

· Ongoing, robust measurement of service impact and continuous quality improvement.

16. Take part in Anchor Youth Space planning, development, team building, and performance reviews.

17. Take part in Anchor Youth Space Nova Scotia training, professional development, research, evaluation, and quality improvement initiatives.

18. Other duties as required.

Knowledge and Experience

1. High school diploma or GED required.

2. Graduate from a recognized Office Administration, Business or Secretarial Diploma Program preferred.

3. Minimum (1) one year of relevant experience required; (2) two years preferred. Experience working with youth and caregivers required.

4. An equivalent combination of education and experience will be considered. Applicants relying on education and experience equivalencies must clearly demonstrate such equivalencies in their application.
