RESET Society of Calgary (formerly Servants Anonymous Society) is currently recruiting for Live-In Coordinator roles. The role of being a Live-In is at the heart of RESET’s approach to offering support and program services. By using this model which uses live-ins (as volunteers, versus a group home model where staff are paid), our participants receive a tremendous amount of dignity and worth, because Live-Ins are seen as volunteers who CHOOSE to support our participants which implies very strongly that they CARE about and WANT to support our women in their journey. This empowers our Participants to take full responsibility for their actions and decisions.
