Original job description

The Program

At Taproot Community Support Services, we’re a 100 percent employee-owned organization through an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT). Every employee is an owner from their first day, with a voice in shaping Taproot’s future and the opportunity to share in employee ownership dividends.

As a Certified B Corporation, we harness business for good. Since 1983 we’ve grown steadily, now delivering support across Alberta, British Columbia, and Ontario through more than 90 contracts.

Our 800-plus employee-owners live by five shared values: we are stronger together, we lead with optimism, we embrace challenges, we respect every voice, and we go above and beyond. Guided by these principles, we deliver more than 125 community-based services each year. We walk alongside about 1,600 children, youth, families, and people with diverse abilities, with revenues exceeding $70 million.

The Bloom program is a non traditional style day program for Community Living British Columbia (CLBC) eligible adults who are over the age of 19.

Bloom CI will be open for service 7 days a week, from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm (except for statutory holidays). The Bloom program intends to promote the active and meaningful participation of individuals with diverse abilities in all aspects of community life. By doing so, this fosters equity, accessibility, and respect. Bloom's programming will help adults in service to achieve an enhanced quality of life, receive personalized supports and gain access to new opportunities such as employment, volunteer placements and a sense of belonging.
