Engage with participants and stakeholders to ensure programming reflects lived experiences, participant goals, and inclusive best practices.
Research and recommend new resources, initiatives, and partnerships that could enhance adaptive program offerings - particularly through collaboration with other internal and external stakeholders and specific to those experiencing disability.
Draft proposals for new program ideas or enhancements, including program objectives, resource needs, and potential collaborators.
Contribute to the design and implementation of program assessment tools to evaluate outcomes, accessibility, and participant satisfaction.
Represent adaptive programming initiatives at internal and external events, student fairs, and open houses as needed.

Qualifications

Experience with ASL, communication technology or creative communication methods, universal design, and accessible standards is an asset.
A passion for adaptive physical activity, sport, and recreation that enhances well-being and creates community.
Demonstrated commitment to developing community informed programming that centres feelings of belonging and dignity.
Awareness, reflexivity, and accountability of one's own identity and openness to learning from diverse identities and perspectives.
Ability to build supportive, respectful, and collaborative relationships with peers, participants, and partners.
