Job Description

About the Role

Are you committed to supporting vulnerable populations and creating meaningful change? In this position within the Justice Services sector, you'll play a key role in helping individuals with brain injuries navigate the criminal justice system. This role combines frontline support, systems advocacy, and community engagement to help clients reduce risk of re-offense and increase their independence.

What You'll Do

You'll coordinate and deliver tailored support to individuals involved with the justice system, ensuring their unique needs are understood and addressed. You'll collaborate with justice system stakeholders, provide court support, and work alongside community partners to build a strong network of resources. Responsibilities include:

Client Support and Coordination

: Provide brain-injury informed support and outreach, maintain accurate documentation, and coordinate individualized care plans.

Systems Navigation and Advocacy

: Support clients in navigating court processes and connect them with appropriate services, including housing, mental health, and addiction resources.

Partnership Development

: Build and maintain strong relationships with police, probation, legal aid, and other community-based agencies.

Education and Outreach

: Facilitate education sessions on brain injury and the justice system for internal staff, external partners, and the broader community.

Program Access

: Ensure clients have equitable access to BrainTrust services, including group programs and clinical counselling.

What We're Looking For

You're someone who is trauma-informed, flexible, and confident working both independently and as part of a team. You're comfortable in a variety of settings--from the courtroom to community outreach--and understand the importance of meeting people where they're at. Experience with marginalized populations, especially those impacted by brain injury, homelessness, or substance use, is an asset.

Why Join BrainTrust?

This is more than a job. It's an opportunity to make a lasting impact in the lives of others while building your own professional skills. We offer a supportive, collaborative team environment where your input is valued and your work matters. If you're passionate about advocacy, equity, and justice, we want to hear from you.
