JS has recently moved to Sechelt (May) after living his whole life in Vancouver. Lately, it had been feeling overly busy and not always safe and he was interested in relocating with his caregiver to a quieter community that felt welcoming and with a slower pace.
JS is looking for some help from a CSW to get to know his new community, establish connections and get involved in the things that interest him:  gaming, chess, game development.  He'd like to become comfortable with the local transit system and wants some help with that and needs help in the form of someone to walk alongside him in order to be able to get to his activities on time.
He is not a morning person.  He appreciates kindness and peacefulness and the right fit for him is someone with good humour and a quietly motivating style; one that he does not find overwhelming.  He would love a “fellow creative mind”; someone who would enjoy talking about his creative projects or sharing their own creative projects.
JS is Indigenous.  A supporter who is also Indigenous would be something that he'd be interested in though says it's not a deal breaker if he gets a good feeling about an applicant.

- support with the areas where lack of executive functioning exists for
  JS:  planning, prioritizing, time management, task initiation,
  flexibility.
- assisting JS to find community resources and supports for his areas
  of interest
- helping to bridge the initial discomfort of meeting people, getting
  involved and establishing a routine that he could potentially follow
  once established.

MANDT - helpful for skills of observation and attention to someone else's signs of discomfort or inability to cope.

10 hrs per week - generally in the afternoons/evenings.  Hours can be configured flexibly in coordination with the supported person and the supervisor in order to take advantage of community opportunities for connection and skill building.

Preferred days for CI would be Fri/Sat/Mon but is flexible.
