Sarnia Lambton Rebound is a non-profit voluntary agency committed to youth between the ages of 8 and 24. We empower youth through the strength of relationships, early intervention, prevention and life skill development, helping them navigate challenges. We partner with others to support youth mental health and nurture growth at every stage of their developmental journey.
Rebound serves as the lead agency for The NEST collaborative, working alongside a network of community partners to provide supports tailored to each youth. This approach ensures that young people are consistently supported and never left to navigate services on their own. We are currently seeking a full-time NEST Lead to join our team and contribute to this important work. This role is delivered in partnership with the County of Lambton and is focused on enhancing housing stability for youth who have experienced or are at risk of homelessness, reducing evictions, and strengthening the overall housing and tenancy experience across the continuum.
