Meaningful Work | Real Growth | A Truly Unique Environment
We’re looking for experienced, reliable Disability Support Workers who enjoy meaningful, practical support work in program‑based environments.
This opportunity brings together skill‑building programs, outdoor activities, community connection, and hands‑on learning across two unique NWDS sites in Richmond ✨ The Secret Garden and Opal Cottage

- Strong communication and teamwork skills
- Reliability — consistency is essential at both sites
- Willingness to support outdoor, hands‑on, and skill‑building activities
