CREATE is committed to the principles of equal employment opportunities and we encourage people of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander background to apply for the position. People with out-of-home care experience are also strongly encouraged to apply.
This role will inspire connection, empowerment and change through fun and creative events and workshops, by providing leadership opportunities for children and young people who are members of clubCREATE or are Young Consultants, and by working to create positive change within the out-of-home care sector.
Community Facilitators are responsible for improving the lives of children and young people with a care experience outlined in the organisations strategic plan goals.
Community Facilitators are guided by the organisations Mission, to Connect to Empower to Change. They do this through ensuring that CREATE’s systems for connecting children and young people to clubCREATE are maintained and new members recruited; and facilitating connection through activities and programs.
CREATE Foundation is a systems advocate organisation. Engaging with children and young people and the community as a whole, is central to the role of the Community Facilitator. CREATE does not provide individual advocacy.
