Job Title: Behavioural & Inclusion SpecialistAbout I Challenge Diabetes (ICD)

ICD is the charity that focuses on delivering the most engaging, inspiring, and empowering opportunities to the type 1 community. We do not shy away from the tough questions. Together amongst peers, we build the skills and courage to face whatever obstacles come our way. We practice them together, leveraging our combined strengths. Each individual may have a different starting point and we meet there to create and celebrate goals together. Life with diabetes demands a lot of us, but the resulting strength gained can expand our horizons.

Position Overview

This camp has a specific focus on youth with type one diabetes, enabling them to learn more about their health, and management strategies, with opportunity to practice surrounded by knowledgeable mentors. Each day of camp will include space for 50 T1 campers, siblings and friends.

This position covers both on-site, and administrative work as a specialized support to our campers and counsellors to encourage the participation, growth and skill development of children who are not acclimating to the group's dynamics

What You'll Do

The Behaviour and Inclusion Specialist will be responsible for identifying participants with challenges and creating intervention strategies that work to empower and include each child.

  • Assist with volunteer engagement, working to delegate event duties and monitor performance of team members, including volunteers, to deliver optimal outcomes
  • Attend daily debriefs and a 5 day in-service staff training.
  • Know and understand ALL emergency procedures associated with the camp program.
  • Know, follow and enforce all safety expectations and guidelines. This includes, but not limited to, being responsible for your campers' safety and their whereabouts at all times.
Preferred Qualifications:
  • In-depth understanding of type 1 diabetes, including managing the disease, best practices, problem solving, and the stigmas/psycho-social challenges of T1D
  • Registered in or a graduate of a University or College program that focuses on education, health, child and youth studies, psychology or social work
  • Strong project- and risk-management skills
  • Ability to work as a member of a team and supervise/facilitate diabetes management tasks.
  • Strong organizational, time management and interpersonal skills.
  • Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written
  • Ability to multi-task with a keen attention to detail, even under tight deadlines
  • Must be willing to submit a Vulnerable Sector Check
  • Physically fit (e.g., an ability to carry 1/3 of own body weight)
  • Ability to maintain a flexible schedule with dependability (weekend, evening and overnight events with travel required.)
  • Priority will be given to those applicants who possess additional relevant certifications
