Are you interested in helping seniors?
in our community to remain in their homes and enjoy
their later years to the fullest extent possible? If so, please consider joining
the Board of Directors of CANES Community Care ("CANES").
CANES mission is “To provide outstanding support and care services that enhance the lives of our clients, enabling them to remain home and in their community.”
Founded in 1982, CANES is a Not-For-Profit organization that has a long history of providing a wide range of care services for seniors living in the west Toronto and surrounding areas. Home care services include things such as home maintenance, homemaking, and personal care. CANES also provides other services such as transportation, friendly visiting phone calls, behavioural supports, and transitional care.
As part of our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout the organization, we are actively seeking individuals who can contribute to our mission with their unique perspectives and lived experiences. Although we are particularly looking for individuals with experience in accounting and finance, risk management, information technology or a healthcare background, CANES would be interested to hear from any interested individuals. We welcome applications from community members.
The Board of Directors is elected to a three (3) year term. Such commitments include the following:
- Attend monthly Board meetings (excluding the months of July, August, and December, unless required).
- Meetings will be held virtually or in person, as set out by the Board Chair from 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM on the last Tuesday of each month.
- Must participate in regular sub-committee meetings (meeting times vary)
- Act and observe the principles of good governance.
