  • Integrate Africentric approaches to mental health and wellness, ensuring culturally relevant support for Black Students
  • Collaborate with other team members (e.g. Diversity Engagement Center, Sexual Violence Prevention and Response Coordinator, Health & Counselling, Bloomfield Hub) to develop and implement joint programming focused on anxiety and stress management and other mental health program priorities that integrate cultural connections for all students.
  • In collaboration with other Centre for Black Student Success staff and community partners, support students from neighbouring African Nova Scotian communities in the transition to university.
  • Develop and lead proactive, stress-based programming to enhance student coping and resilience for all students on campus.

Qualifications

  • A bachelor’s degree in social work, Counselling, Psychology, or related field
  • Master’s Degree is preferred but not required in Social Work, Counselling, Psychology, or related field.
  • Must be registered or eligible for registration as a regulated Health Professional in Nova Scotia (e.g. Counselling, Psychology, Social Work, etc.)
  • Minimum of 5 – 7 years of related experience
  • Experience working in a university or college environment preferred, with a focus particularly in the small, rural, undergraduate experience.
  • Experience in community-based work with Black youth and a deep understanding of the unique mental health challenges faced by Black students.
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to build relationships with students, faculty, and staff. Experience working with young adults is considered a strong asset.
  • Expertise in career counselling would be an asset.
  • Cultural competence and a commitment to Africentric ways of knowing, being, and doing.
