Join Our Mission at the Calgary Drop-In Centre

At the Calgary Drop-In and Rehab Centre (the DI), we’re looking for passionate, community-minded people who know that kindness can change lives.

Whether you’re helping guests find housing, supporting their recovery journey, or keeping our operations running strong, your work here truly matters. Every role at the DI is about creating possibilities for others, and for yourself.

Who We Are

The Calgary Drop-In and Rehab Centre (the DI) is a low-barrier, housing-focused organization serving some of Calgary’s most vulnerable community members.

We believe everyone deserves dignity, safety, and the opportunity to thrive. Every day, our team meets people where they’re at - offering basic needs, compassion, and connection while helping them move toward stable, permanent housing.

Our work is guided by the principles of housing first, trauma-informed care, harm reduction, and recovery-oriented practice. But above all, we’re guided by people - their stories, their strengths, and their potential.

When you join the DI, you’re joining a team built on respect, collaboration, and heart.

Deliver exceptional meal service by preparing and crafting high-quality menu items, expertly following recipes and production schedules, and ensuring seamless banquet-style service through efficient meal staging, temperature management, and continuous line replenishment to ensure every client receives a quality dining experience with dignity and care.
Keep operations running smoothly by setting up and maintaining workstations, mastering commercial kitchen equipment, supporting high-volume meal service, receiving and organizing food deliveries, and contributing to a culture of teamwork, cleanliness, and food safety every step of the way.
Help build an engaging and inclusive kitchen community by mentoring volunteers, demonstrating culinary techniques and safety practices, and fostering strong relationships that inspire teamwork, learning, and exceptional service.
Champion food safety and quality by upholding AHS standards, following safe food handling and sanitization practices, and expertly managing inventory through temperature monitoring, product labeling, and FIFO rotation to minimize waste and maximize efficiency.

That’s why we prioritize staff wellbeing through training, peer and supervisory support, debriefing opportunities, and a strong culture of teamwork. Our environment calls for resilience and steadiness, but it also offers the reward of seeing real change and connection every day. Some roles may also involve occasional exposure to medical distress or bodily fluids, and safety protocols and resources are always in place to support you.
