Goal Facilitator

 Do you believe in the right of all people to self-determine the direction their life takes?

  • Are you interested in supporting young adults with an intellectual disability to set and achieve their own goals?

The NextPath Post School Program of Mater Dei is seeking a Goal Facilitator to join its growing team. At NextPath we provide ongoing learning and purposeful activities to assist young adults with a disability to achieve self-directed goals.

This involves developing tailored programs to assist participants to meet their goals, liaising with their parents/carers, working as part of the broader team to arrange community learning opportunities aligned with their goals; and mentoring and developing Assistant Goal Facilitators who work alongside program participants.
