A conversation with Andrea Gordon, Team Lead, School of Peer Support

“I think CMHA Calgary works really hard to create a community and a really inclusive atmosphere for everyone who works here. They value wellness and individuality and personal circumstances, so it’s never a one size fits all for everyone.

There’s opportunity for growth, and for advancement, and for personal development. I really value the communication; it’s clear, it’s concise, it’s compassionate, and it’s consistent, and it’s been that way throughout the time that I’ve worked here, and importantly throughout the time of the pandemic when there’s been a lot of uncertainty. It is by far the most rewarding job that I’ve ever had and my favorite place to work.”
