Working at CILT

What is it like working at the Centre for Independent Living in Toronto? Check out CILT’s Employee Value Proposition (EVP).

Impactful Work

At an individual level: the opportunity to influence/make decisions at all staff levels​.

At a broader level: an organization that is respected for collaborating with people with disabilities to advocate for equity through the principles of IL.

Human-centred Leadership​

We are committed to leading with empathy, curiosity, and humility.

​Empathy: we seek to understand what’s important to the staff who make CILT’s work happen. 

Curiosity: we value the ideas, contributions, and strengths of staff at all levels and collaborate to develop solutions. Different perspectives and effort are celebrated as enthusiastically as achieving organizational goals.

​Humility: we seek and reflect on feedback on ourselves. Growth at CILT is about learning, improving, and building relationships. ​

Work-life Balance

We support people as whole persons; professional and personal.​ Taking time to focus on well-being, rest, and rejuvenation is as important as working hard to reach organizational goals​.

We offer flexibility and hybrid work that balances your personal life with CILT’s operational needs​.

Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Accessibility (IDE+A)

Disability inclusion is an inherent core value at CILT​. We also strive to be an inclusive, and equitable workplace for other equity-deserving groups, including groups of diverse ethnicity, gender/sexual identity, and race​

IDE+A is not just a check box, it is our organizational journey that is beginning with dialogue, a critical look at our policies and practices, and a commitment to action.

Like-minded ​Colleagues

While we recognize and celebrate the wonderful and diverse perspectives of each other, we share a collective passion for our mission, our consumers, and the IL philosophy.

We treat each other with respect and kindness, and listen to and appreciate each other​.

We keep connected by purposefully gathering for virtual (and eventually in person) all staff events.

High Ethical Standards & Integrity

We have a clear mission, vision, values, policies, and standards of conduct, and strive to embed them in our actions​.

We operate according to fair and transparent standards and go above and beyond to ensure decisions are based on what is right, not just what is legal/compliant with regulatory requirements. Even when no-one is looking​.

We lead by example, take responsibility for our actions, take steps to address mistakes, and take action on unethical behaviour.
