Based in Sudbury, Ontario (not very far from Toronto), Compass is the Lead Agency for child & youth mental health services for the districts of Sudbury and Manitoulin. Compass has a culture of caring, learning, and purpose where employees feel supported, where new ideas and innovation are welcomed, and where massive, intergenerational impact is made in the lives of children, youth, families, and communities at large. Culture, leadership, and development really matter at Compass. We’re proud of bringing our culture to life through regular staff engagement, prioritizing employee wellness, and embodying the trauma-informed culture framework Sanctuary (www.thesanctuaryinstitute.org/about-us/the-sanctuary-model). The senior leadership team also engages its management team and key staff influencers in monthly leadership development related to the LEADS in a Caring Environment Framework (www.leadscanada.net).

 

Sudbury is a medium-sized city known for its serenity (including virtually no traffic!) and an astonishing amount of nearby lakes, hiking trails, and outdoor activities, while still enjoying a significant variety of the amenities large cities offer, including various restaurants, entertainment, and cultural diversity.
