Our team is looking for a System Navigator & Community Outreach Worker!

This role brings together two essential parts of our work: walking alongside young people and families as they navigate mental health and social service systems, and helping ensure that young people know where to turn for support in the first place.

The successful candidate will support client intake, identify individual needs, connect clients with appropriate services, and provide ongoing navigation and follow-up. They will also play an active role on the Mobile Youth Wellness Hub Team, bringing awareness and support into communities through outreach, community events, and public engagement.

This is a full-time, salaried role that’s home-based, with flexible scheduling and regular community-based work throughout Muskoka.

If you believe every young person deserves to feel supported, connected, and hopeful about their future, we would love to hear from you!

Every year, Leanne and Shawn Kerswell do something special to honour their son Alex.

Through their charity, Legacy for Alex, they host a fundraiser dinner and silent auction to raise funds for youth mental health, wellness, and homelessness initiatives. This year’s event raised $7,500 for MiND-AID, and we couldn’t be more grateful for their continued support.

To Leanne, Shawn, the team behind Legacy for Alex, the event organizers and volunteers, and everyone who attended the dinner, thank you. Because of you, young people in Muskoka will:

💙 receive one-on-one mental health navigation support
💙 connect to resources to support their well-being
💙 access community support through the Mobile Youth Wellness Hub

You help ensure young people have a safe place to go when they are struggling with their mental health.
