Wellspring Alberta is a charitable organization that supports, informs, and empowers those diagnosed with cancer by helping them address the fear, isolation, disruption, and practical problems cancer can bring to their lives. An affiliate of the Wellspring Cancer Support Foundation, Wellspring Alberta provides a comprehensive range of programs, support, resources, so anyone living with cancer and the people who care about them can improve the quality of their lives. All programs and services are informed by evidence and offered free of charge and without referral in three centres and online. Our vision is that no one has to face cancer alone.
Wellspring Alberta’s work is made possible through the generous donations of individuals, corporations, foundations, grassroots fundraisers, and with the efforts of committed volunteers, dedicated staff, and skilled contracted program leaders.
Wellspring Alberta’s Program Leader team is a team of highly skilled professionals with big hearts. Wellspring Alberta offers over 70 evidence-informed programs. Each program is unique and requires a different skill set. Most expressive arts programs are under 2 hours and run 2-4 weeks per session. The ceramics program often takes a week-long break to allow for drying and firing.
The Opportunity
Reporting to the Program Director and working closely with the program team, the contracted Program Leader is responsible for the leadership of the program.
Wellspring’s Art Workshop programs build communities of hope and support, diminish feelings of isolation, and create feelings of well-being and self-worth. Members are invited to sample a multitude of art genres. Wellspring art programs are welcoming to all people living with cancer, no experience necessary. These expressive arts programs are led by individuals recognized as experts in their fields, who understand and work with creativity and personal expression with a wellness focus.
Wellspring Alberta is hiring this position for in-person programming at both Calgary locations, especially Randy O’Dell House. Leaders must be willing to go to both centres. Please note that while we hire art therapists, our programs are based on an expressive arts model, not a therapy model. Our leaders are skilled group facilitators focused on group process, rather than a focus on teaching.
We are particularly looking for leaders in the following areas:
