You will provide highly individualized services in the community and promote self-determination and decision making.

Staff should have lived experience with homelessness, mental health and/or substance use. Should be currently stable and ready to help support others using their own experiences to help others. High School education is enough. We can train on other things. Peer specialist training/certification nice but not required. Would encourage them to work on certifications. Must be able to drive (good record) and work varying shifts. There is some weekend during winter months and special events. Previous work experience great, but not necessary.
