Position Overview

Our goal in Clinical and Children's Services is to provide a single point of access to timely children’s mental health services, focusing on positive outcomes for our clients. We provide

Indigenous strength-based healing and support, and teach healthy coping skills for children, and youth experiencing social, emotional, developmental, or behavioral difficulties. Grounded in a relationship-based framework of care, Dilico recognizes relationships as the foundation of healing and wellness.

The Dilico Counselling Services program provides culturally responsive support to children, youth, and families through an Indigenous trauma-informed framework that integrates evidence-based practice with cultural and land-based approaches. This program is built on the principles of mutual respect and trust, collaboration and partnership, understanding context, and reciprocity.

We deliver services using a coordinated wraparound model that supports children and youth within the context of their families, caregivers, communities, and culture. Recognizing that healing and well-being are strengthened through meaningful connections,



the program fosters resilience, belonging, cultural identity, and sustainable positive outcomes by engaging and empowering the broader support network surrounding each child and youth.

The manager will work to ensure intake, assessment and therapy is provided in a manner consistent with Dilico’s vision, mission and core values. This includes the overall management, supervision, and coordination of the activities of the program and employees.
