As Investigator / Case Worker, your role will focus on ensuring the wellbeing of others.

Your day-to-day work will involve traveling throughout the region, conducting investigations in residences, determining if reports are substantiated, documenting findings, developing plans, and managing active cases.

  • Service Coordinator, Supports Coordinator or Program Specialist roles
  • Child, Family and Youth Services case management experience (County CYF)
