Advocate (Restricted to Indigenous Applicants) Full Time

RCY Advocates provide intake, direct advocacy and outreach services to children, youth and
young adults (19 – 26) accessing a designated or prescribed service under the Representative for
Children and Youth Act. Intake and advocacy services include assessing service requests,
providing information and referrals, engaging with relevant key party groups in early resolution,
promoting and supporting self-advocacy and providing direct advocacy services where
appropriate. Advocates also engage in community relations activities with various key party
groups across the province. RCY Advocates’ day-to-day work may focus on different elements of
service for extended periods (i.e., intake, assessing requests, direct advocacy or community
engagement) as operationally needed.
