About Nidus: Nidus is a BC-based, non-profit charitable organization that was founded by groups involved in the community-based reform of BC’s adult guardianship legislation, and most notably, development of the BC Representation Agreement Act (“RA Act”). The RA Act is world-renowned and recognized as innovative and significant, especially to the disability and senior communities. The RA Act inspired Article 12 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities which calls on governments to implement legislation that ensures all adults receive support with decision making without the need to take away or restrict their rights (as happens with adult guardianship, called Committeeship in BC). Nidus operates a resource centre on Representation Agreements and related legal planning documents and reaches tens of thousands of individuals and families across the province. Nidus is considered the centre of excellence on education and best practices in the field of personal planning.

Application Process: Only applicants selected for an interview will be contacted. To apply, please forward your resume and cover letter to ajun@nidus.ca with subject line “Community Outreach Manager Application” by Monday, May 11, 2026.
