Who We Are

The Calgary and Area Child and Family Services authority is legislated by the Province of Alberta to provide a broad range of services to children and their families. These services include the full range of Intervention Services (including Family Enhancement, Core Protection, Adoption), child care licensing, monitoring and subsidy, Family Support for Children with Disabilities, and Prevention of Family Violence.

What We Believe

Children and families are best served through our Four Pillars:

  1. Community-based Services
  2. Early Intervention
  3. Integrated Services
  4. Improved Services to Aboriginal Children

What We Offer

  • A career, not just a job. Opportunities exist for qualified, motivated individuals to assist families in a variety of programs and to advance professionally, based on merit.
  • A comprehensive orientation and core training program for all new employees in child protection services. In your first year of employment you will be provided mandatory training, including:
    • Orientations and Basic Training (3 days),
    • Child Protective Services (4 weeks),
    • Sexual Abuse Investigation (4 days), and
    • Child and Youth Information Module Training (2 days).
  • The Authority sponsors numerous workshops and seminars that staff are encouraged to attend.
  • After-hour services are provided by a Central Unit, therefore staff are not expected to provide general on-call services, except for their own caseload.
  • An internship program for qualified candidates in child protection services.
  • Quality supervision.
  • An opportunity to work in a Multi Service Team environment in a small office located in the community being served.
  • An urban setting with all its benefits and services, within an hour of North America's great outdoor playground, the Rocky Mountains.
