Description:

This is more than a clinical role—it’s a chance to provide meaningful, culturally responsive care while building relationships beyond the therapy room. As a Speech & Language Pathologist, you’ll deliver a full range of services, including assessment, diagnosis, intervention, & ongoing support for students with challenges in language, speech, voice, fluency, and swallowing. Your work will directly support skills that shape lifelong outcomes.

What makes this role unique is its context. Services are rooted in a strengths-based, culturally respectful approach that honours local ways of knowing. You’ll collaborate closely with a multidisciplinary team while travelling to rural Yukon First Nation communities—rarely travelling in isolation.

This one-year term offers a rare blend of professional growth & personal experience. You’ll broaden your clinical practice while gaining valuable insight into Indigenous education & community-based service delivery. Along the way, you’ll experience Yukon’s stunning landscapes & close-knit communities—an environment that invites both connection and adventure.

Hiring preference will be provided to those who identify as Indigenous – please self-identify.
