Support person - southern adelaide

Adelaide
Community Living Project
Posted: 11 February
Offer description

I'm a 26-year-old woman looking for someone who can walk alongside me in my move into the city to study at UniSA. I have a clear idea on what I want my life to look like, but I cannot do all of it on my own.

Although I have lived independently before, I struggle to manage self-sufficient living to the fullest, both as a tenant and as a student. As such, one of my highest priorities is to help me build skills necessary for a successful work/life balance.

My studies will be my highest priority in the coming years, and along with wanting a great student life, I also want to integrate into Adelaide and its culture. This may include learning skills such as navigating the city efficiently and being active in many of Adelaide's art festivals. I am living with a severe social phobia, which impacts my ability to mask and hold conversations with other people. I believe part of my success in moving will be to learn grounding techniques and maintaining both my mental and physical health.

I am looking for a person who is a calm, empathetic, only a bit older than me, a good listener, and gives me space when I need it most. However, they also need to help me with staying on track with my responsibilities, develop routines, and provide multiple options when I'm unsure on how to next proceed. Knowing Adelaide really well will also go a long way in supporting me.

My hobbies include Dungeons and Dragons, drawing, and video games. I love to talk about anime and all types of technology. I like going to fan conventions, and would like to learn more about cosplay, fashion, and fitness.

Requirements for position:

* High school diploma or equivalent
* Previous experience in a similar role preferred
* Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
* Ability to work independently and as part of a team
* Compassionate and patient demeanor
* Ability to handle stressful situations with calmness and professionalism
* Basic computer skills
* Valid driver's license and reliable transportation
* First Aid certificate with CPR
* NDIS worker check
* National police check

Role Type

Pay Rate

43.23 AUD – 60.52 AUD (Hour)

Company Overview

For more than 30 years, the Community Living Project has worked in close partnership with families to build opportunities for a good life for their family member who is living with a disability. Community Living Project focuses on building inclusion. To us, this means that everyone matters and all people are welcomed, included and contributing to community life. We work with one person at a time to craft individualised support in a way that ensures each person (and their family) has as much control as possible over all aspects of their life. We believe all people should have the opportunity to pursue a unique lifestyle that is personally meaningful, relevant and typically intertwined in their community. We will not offer you a generic 'program', 'vacancy' or 'place'. Instead, we will help you to craft your participation and inclusion in the community.
