About Us

For 40 years, Camp Amicus has provided impactful and life-changing camp experiences for children, teens, and youth with Learning Disabilities, ADHD, and related diagnoses. It is a place where participants are seen and understood for who they are, with individual supports in place for each camper to find understanding, build confidence, and maximize their potential. All programs at Amicus are based on current evidence-based and peer-reviewed models and interventions.

About You

Camp Amicus is not only a place for our campers to grow, but for our staff to grow too! We are passionate about helping staff develop new skills and find their passions within their role at Camp Amicus. Amicus staff are defined by their desire to grow, take responsibility for any missteps (we all make mistakes!), are flexible when changes happen, communicate with others clearly and honestly, and are self-starters. Amicus is not limited to folks with a set background in working with children, or camp/recreation programs. We appreciate having staff with little or no experience joining our team who want to learn as they often provide new perspectives on our programs, policies, and how Amicus can be successful.

Position Summary

Working as a team with your co-counsellor, Amicus Camp Counsellors support and supervise campers in a 2:6 ratio. Counsellors make our program fun and impactful by creating meaningful relationships with and between our campers. Working in a collaborative team to support campers and other staff, our Counsellors get to slip and slide, create art, play soccer, climb, paddle, horseback ride, and more with our campers all summer long. Counsellors are supported by their head counsellor to find success in their role at camp. We take the development of our camp staff seriously, through over 100 hours of paid training and industry certifications such as SIVA (Supporting Individuals through Valued Attachments) Training, Inside ADHD training presented by seasoned industry professionals and structured supervision and mentorship plans for each staff member.

Note: For 2026 we intend to provide both overnight and day camp programming. Staff hired may give their preference as to which program they prefer to work. While we try our best to accommodate staff’s program of choice, there is no guarantee that is where they will be placed and there may be staff movement between these programs.

Physical/Social Demands of the Role

Candidates must be able to see and respond to campers and other staff consistently.

Candidates must be able to work in a consistently mobile fashion - moving for up to 4 hours a time.

Candidates must be able to sustain attention to the program participants without significant impairment.

Candidates will not have access to their cell phones during work hours, except during special circumstances and emergencies.

Key Position Responsibilities

In accordance with our mandate of creating a caring and safe environment for children and their families, we require an up-to-date (within 6 months of start) Police Record with Vulnerable Sector Screening and eligibility to work in Canada.

Supporting and Supervising Campers

Establish relationships with campers that reflect respect, trust, and empathy, and work as a social coach to develop social skills in our campers
Support the successful execution of intentional camp programs connecting them back to the program outcomes
Encourage camper development and recognize their achievements
Respond with interventions learned in training when addressing challenging camper behaviours as they arise
Model healthy choices and emotional maturity
Exhibit a constant duty of care for our campers and appropriately assess and respond to risks
Assist campers in meeting daily and personal needs for nutrition, hydration, and hygiene (hygiene overnight camp only) with reminders and monitoring.
Providing supervision at mealtimes, bedtimes, and any unstructured or "choice" times.

Programming

Attend all staff training and camp sessions, participating in daily camp programming and activities
Adapt and implement successful camp programs, connecting them to our program mission, values, and outcomes (social skill programming, clubs, choice, and camp-wide game alternative programming)
Communicate the changing programming supply needs to the program coordinator

Documentation and Communication

Inform supervisor (head counsellor) of any camper issues that arise in a timely manner (within 2 hours)
Complete camper reports to a high level that are well-edited, coherent, submitted within a timely manner (before the end-of-week ceremony while allowing time for review) and include appropriate strategies for families
Complete weekly camper awards that capture the camper’s achievements while being creative, well-edited, coherent and submitted within a timely manner (before the end-of-week ceremony while allowing time for review)
Ensure all forms (safe person/safe place plan, accident/incident report, behaviour support plan) are completed and communicated accurately and in a timely manner (by the end of the day).
