Heartland Victim Services is recruiting victim advocates.
The Heartland Victim Services unit is a non-profit, police-based, community supported unit. The advocates provide victims of crime or tragic circumstances with support, information, and referrals to community or regional agencies and with support navigating the justice system.
Our goal is to reduce the impact of trauma to victims, both at the time of crises, and during their time of need. We strive to create an unbiased, confidential, and supportive environment for those dealing with the aftermath of loss, tragedy or crime.

Must be over the age of 18.
Must be allowed to legally work in Canada.
Must have security clearance through the RCMP process.
Must have a valid driver's license.
Must be able to work independently, yet display the ability to collaborate and work effectively with others.
