Notre objectif est de favoriser l'autonomisation des personnes pour qu'elles puissent relever les défis de leur relation avec la consommation de substances et le jeu. Pour ce faire, nous établissons des liens directs entre la toxicomanie et le jeu, la violence et les traumatismes fondés sur le genre, et les effets de l'oppression.Nous sommes une organisation à but non lucratif syndiquée qui fonctionne comme un collectif féministe modifié afin de fournir une gamme de services à nos communautés en se fondant sur les valeurs fondamentales de la pratique anti-oppressive et des soins axés sur le client. Le fait de fonctionner comme un collectif féministe modifié permet à Amethyst de rester enraciné dans les communautés avec lesquelles et pour lesquelles nous travaillons, ce qui signifie que le collectif s'adapte et change grâce au modèle de consensus et en fonction des besoins de la communauté. Notre fonctionnement comme un collectif nous permet également de respecter nos valeurs fondamentales à tous les niveaux du fonctionnement, des opérations et des services du collectif.Amethyst offre une variété de services de traitement de jour (y compris la thérapie individuelle, la thérapie de groupe, les ateliers et l'engagement communautaire), des services de promotion de la santé (partenariats communautaires et engagement par le biais d'ateliers et d'événements), l'engagement communautaire et l'éducation du public.CE QUE NOUS OFFRONSAu Centre Amethyst, nous sommes passionnées par la prestation d'excellents services à nos communautés. Nous le faisons en tant que collectif depuis plus de quarante ans. Notre équipe permanente employée est rémunérée sur une base égale, à raison de 5 % de leur salaire brut à la quinzaine pour notre régime de retraite, auquel Amethyst verse un montant équivalent. L’équipe bénéficie également d'un ensemble d'avantages sociaux généreux et d'un engagement à l'égard de la santé et du bien-être général et de l'équilibre entre la vie professionnelle et la vie personnelle, qui comprend des congés annuels généreux ainsi que d'autres congés (congés de maladie, congés pour raisons familiales et congés pour raisons de santé mentale).PROCESSUS DE CANDIDATURESAmethyst accueille et encourage les candidatures de membres de groupes en quête d'équité, notamment les femmes, les personnes transgenres, non binaires et LGBTQ2+, les membres des Premières nations, les Métis et les Inuits, les personnes handicapées et les membres de groupes racialisés et marginalisés.
