Community Health Worker – Consumption Treatment Services (CTS)

Shelter Manager 
Employment status: Full-time, permanent (40 hours per week) 
Location: St. Catharines 
Hours: Typically, Monday – Friday 8:30am-4:30pm but evening and weekend availability will be 
occasionally required to support staff or respond to urgent situations while on-call 
Salary: $64,501 - $73,101 (plus extended health benefits and a RRSP matching program) 

 
About Southridge Community Church 
We’re a Jesus-centred multi-site missional community, seeking to foster lives that are fully 
devoted to Jesus across the Niagara Region. 
 
Our goal is to increasingly practice and embody—both personally and collectively—the kind of 
love Jesus modeled. We emphasize a way of life that’s about more than just attending a weekly 
church service, but extends to all 168 hours of the week. And we’re committed to being 
difference-makers where God has placed us. 
 
We do this by fostering a lifestyle of full devotion to Jesus, meaning we serve our surrounding 
society with the love of Jesus by growing and engaging our people in the way of life of Jesus to 
a greater degree. There are three primary ways we’re seeking to foster this way of life, 
expressed and stimulated by our three primary programs: Sunday services, Life Groups and 
Anchor Causes. 
 
We have three locations across Niagara, each with a unique Anchor Cause of compassion and 
justice. In St. Catharines, serving people experiencing homelessness or needing housing. In 
Welland, meeting needs and building relationships with people experiencing food insecurity. In 
Vineland, connecting with and providing social services to Caribbean migrant farm workers. 
 
About Our Homelessness Services 
As a practical way to serve our community, we also operate a complement of practical support 
services to people along the continuum of homelessness. This includes staff supporting 
community outreach through NASO, our regional After Hours Shelter Placement Line, a 24/7, 
55 bed housing focused emergency shelter, Housing First and Home for Good programming for 
clients living independently throughout Niagara. 
 
We believe that it takes more than the support of a social service to break the cycle of 
homelessness. It takes a community of people working together and in authentic friendship to 
complement this excellence in service.
