ABOUT COMMON GROUND

Common Ground Supported Living supports adults with disabilities, autism, mental health challenges, and complex support needs to live meaningful lives within their communities.

Our work is part of Nova Scotia's Human Rights Remedy, helping individuals move away from institutional models of care and toward real homes, real relationships, and real community belonging.

We believe support is about more than supervision. It is about building trust, promoting independence, creating stability, and helping people achieve lives that reflect their own goals and choices.

THE ROLE

We are seeking compassionate, reliable, and resilient individuals to join our team as Support Workers.

This role involves supporting adults with a wide range of needs including:

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
Intellectual and developmental disabilities
Mental health challenges
Trauma-related presentations
Behavioural support needs
Diabetes and other health-related supports
Community integration and independent living

Remain calm during difficult situations
Are patient, empathetic, and non-judgmental
Understand that behaviour is communication
Can provide consistency and structure

Experience is valuable, but attitude, reliability, and a willingness to learn are equally important.
