Internally, the role will lead a multidisciplinary redevelopment team and help foster a collaborative, integrated, and future-focused approach to infrastructure planning and project delivery across the organization.
This is a unique opportunity to lead one of Ontario’s most significant and complex healthcare redevelopment portfolios, helping shape the future of healthcare infrastructure and integrated care delivery across Waterloo Region.

ABOUT ROBERTS SMART CENTRE
The Roberts/Smart Centre (RSC) is an accredited, intensive treatment centre and the only bilingual tertiary mental health provider in Ontario. We are committed to empowering youth facing severe psychosocial challenges, often serving as their last line of defense after navigating numerous other services.
With over 50 years of experience, our comprehensive, trauma-informed approach includes school-based programs, community support, live-in treatment, and specialized anti-human trafficking initiatives. At RSC, we strive to foster resilience and support young people to forge their paths to success.
Roberts Smart Centre’s story began in 1973, when Dr. C.A. Roberts and Mr. R.S. Smart, joined forces and founded the Ottawa Carleton Regional Residential Treatment Centre for the Ottawa Health Region.
The Centre quickly expanded and now operates:
Secure Treatment Facility
Two Open Live-In Treatment programs in a home setting
School-based Mental Health and Day Treatment programs in schools across Eastern Ontario
The Roberts/Smart Academy, a fully accredited private school
CORATH (anti-human trafficking initiative)
Therapeutic Camping and Outdoor Treatment
Community Reintegration program
Programs for families
Renamed the Roberts/Smart Centre in 1997, we provide treatment to youth from across Ontario dealing with complex mental health and behavioural challenges in a welcoming, supportive, and safe environment. Our multi-disciplinary team includes psychiatrists, occupational therapists, clinicians, nurses, pharmacists, and child and youth counsellors who have special training in trauma-informed, client-centered, therapeutic crisis Intervention, and collaborative problem-solving.
Our approach to mental health treatment is strengths-based, trauma-informed, and person-centered. Through our programs and services, we help youth to recover and heal through treatment, education, and life-skills development.
After a detailed review of our care, governance, and safety standards, RSC achieved reaccreditation through 2029 by the Canadian Centre for Accreditation. For youth and families, this means knowing that the services they receive meet the highest standards of safety and quality. Accreditation also connects us with other accredited organizations across Ontario, giving us the chance to share knowledge and strengthen the care that young people depend on.
OUR MISSION
The Roberts/Smart Centre is a tertiary provider and provincial leader in the delivery of inclusive, community-based, individualized treatment and clinical services in both official languages to improve the lives of youth and their families from across Ontario living with complex mental health and behavioural needs.
OUR VISION
We envision a future in which youth with complex mental health and behavioural challenges receive innovative, highest quality, progressive and supportive treatment - when they need it and in the way they need it - to help them heal, learn, grow and live their full potential.
OUR VALUES
Strength-based
Individualized opportunity for youth
Respect and collaboration
Commitment to service excellence
Cultural safety and sensitivity, inclusivity, and diversity
Excellence in governance
PROGRAMS & SERVICES
Secure Treatment Facility
Our Secure Treatment program is an intensive, live-in treatment option for youth ages 12-18 dealing with complex mental health and behavioural issues. Admission to our Secure Treatment Facility in Ottawa requires a court order and is open to youth from all over Ontario.
RSC is working with the Ministry of Health and the Health Capital Investment Branch team to continue to move forward plans for a new Secure Treatment Facility. This work aligns with the Provincial initiative to expand intensive services for youth with mental health challenges. This future space will give young people a modern, therapeutic environment designed to support healing and growth. It represents an important step toward ensuring that youth have the right setting to build skills, find stability, and prepare for brighter futures.
Open Live-In Treatment Centre
The Centre operates two open live-in programs for youth with mental health concerns. These programs are in urban homes in Ottawa. They exist to provide care in both official languages for those youth whose difficulties require treatment on a 24-hour basis. The program capitalizes on the “in-residence” component of intervention in providing a therapeutic milieu and programs related to lifestyle, education, and recreation.
Day Treatment Program
Day treatment provides youth with a therapeutic, structured, meaningful, and directed learning program. As these programs address the academic needs of the youth, they simultaneously provide support to the treatment plan of the student.
Roberts/Smart Academy
The Roberts/Smart Academy is open to youth aged 12-18, who come from Ottawa or elsewhere in the province, with mental health and behavioural needs that exceed what a traditional school setting could provide.
School-Based Mental Health
The RSC provides mental health services in local high schools through the School-Based Mental Health program. These services provide individualized, youth-driven support to teens within the school setting as well throughout the summer months where needed. Services provided focus on prevention, reduction, and support for mental health challenges.
Caregiver and Family Education and Support
Counsellors offer a family support group along with teaching an innovative, compassionate, and proven approach, called Collaborative Problem Solving (CPS) that helps with understanding and supporting youth. Learning side-by-side with other caregivers and parents provides an optimum setting to shift understanding and learn a new ways of working with their child.
CORATH - Empowering Youth Experiencing Human Trafficking.
Creating Opportunities and Resources Against the Trafficking of Humans (CORATH) is a community program for youth aged 12 to 24 who have been or are at risk of being trafficked, notably through sexual exploitation.
2024-2025 RSC by the Numbers
At the Roberts/Smart Centre, our financial decisions reflect our values and our deep commitment to youth. We continued to direct our resources toward what matters most: supporting young people on their path to healing. As a result, our greatest investment remains in people. From front-line staff to clinical professionals and specialized teams, it is their care, expertise, and compassion that drive meaningful change. Prioritizing salaries, benefits, and professional supports is not just a financial choice - it is a recognition that our staff are the foundation of everything we do.

NOW HIRING
Deputy Chief Public Health Officer
Government of Nunavut | Department of Health
Iqaluit, Nunavut • On-Site •
What if your expertise could shape public health across an entire territory?
We are looking for a public health physician who is ready to lead at a scale where you shape territorial strategy, your policy advice reaches Cabinet, and your presence in communities’ matters.
The Government of Nunavut's Department of Health is seeking a Deputy Chief Public Health Officer (DCPHO), a senior physician leader who will work at the executive level of one of Canada's most unique and consequential public health systems.
This is a broad, generalist rural leadership role, suited to a physician who leads with humility, acts with urgency, and is committed to building strong, sustainable systems.
What You Will Do
Reporting directly to the Chief Public Health Officer, you will:
• Lead public health strategy and policy for Nunavut's public health system
• Drive Nunavut's TB Program forward, partnering with epidemiology, public health nursing, the Territorial Infectious Disease Specialist, and community partners to update protocols and initiate programs within your mandate
• Collaborate to address the territory's most pressing infectious disease priorities
• Represent Nunavut at federal, provincial, and territorial public health tables
• Prepare Ministerial-level briefings, position statements, and policy recommendations for senior government leaders
• Serve as Acting Chief Public Health Officer when designated
Why This Role Is Different
Real Impact, Real Visibility.
Your decisions connect directly to communities. Your advice reaches senior leadership. Your leadership is visible, trusted, and consequential — not filtered through layers of administration.
Meaningful Autonomy.
You will have autonomy over the Infectious Disease portfolio, including the support to change policies and initiate programs aligned with the departmental mandate.
Strong Support, Not Isolation.
You will have daily access to the CPHO, structured interaction, and the backing of a department committed to your success. Cultural sensitivity training is provided.
A Generalist's Dream Portfolio.
From TB and infectious disease to health equity, environmental health, and population strategy — this role offers the breadth that senior public health physicians rarely find in one posting.
About Iqaluit and Life in Nunavut
Iqaluit is Nunavut's capital. For physicians who want their environment to match the depth of their work, Iqaluit offers an experience unlike any conventional rural health-system role.
Life here means close community networks, access to land-based activities, a direct connection to the communities you serve, and a pace of work that is intense but purposeful. It also means the realities of northern living: logistical differences and seasonal considerations. The right candidate does not see those realities as barriers. They see them as part of the meaningful context of doing this work well.
The Government of Nunavut is guided by Inuit Societal Values — including humility, collaboration, respect for community knowledge, and service to others.
What You Bring
Required
• Medical Degree (MD)
• Active (or eligible) medical licence in Nunavut; willingness to obtain prior to start
• Experience as a Medical Officer of Health, Public Health Physician, or senior public health medical leader
• Strong knowledge of communicable disease control, population health, public health administration, and health equity
• Excellent communication skills; able to brief senior leadership, communities, and media with equal confidence
• Willingness to establish and maintain residency in Nunavut
Preferred / Strong Assets
• FRCPC in Public Health and Preventive Medicine
• Experience Medical Officer of Health or equivalent
• Experience in northern, remote, Indigenous, or Inuit health contexts
• TB program, outbreak response, IPAC, or communicable disease leadership experience
• Experience in public-sector legislative or intergovernmental environments
You Might Be Exactly Who We're Looking for If...
• You want to lead a public health system, not advise one from the margins
• You are energized by complex, multi-determinant challenges where geography, culture, equity, and infectious disease intersect
• You lead with genuine respect for community knowledge
• You are steadier under pressure than most, and you build people up
• You are ready to live where your work
Ready to Lead Where It Matters?
If you are a public health physician who wants their expertise to be visible, consequential, and deeply connected to the people you serve — we want to hear from you.

First Nations peoples have lived on this part of Turtle Island for millennia, stewarding the land, the water and all that contributes to life in this region. Today, the culture and presence of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples enrich the lands and people of this territory. More than two centuries ago, the Mississauga people welcomed settlers to this territory, providing sustenance and engaging in trade and commerce. Today, York University campuses are located on the Toronto Purchase Treaty No. 13 lands and territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and the lands of the Anishinabek of the Williams Treaties First Nations. Our campuses are also situated on the traditional territories of the Huron-Wendat and the Haudenosaunee. Treaty history is foundational, and it is our collective responsibility to honour the land, as we honour and respect those who have gone before us, those who are here and those who have yet to come. We are grateful for the opportunity to be learning, working and thriving on this land, and we commit to learn the truth and be active in the process of reconciliation.
