Love it here - Coordinator CMHA Durham Employee Review

Excellent work culture, friendly staff and management, lots of learning opportunities and able to learn from mistakes, Team Leads and Managers gives meaningful feedback, able to thrive in the workplace

Most jobs are contract, limited opportunities for growth and stability, salary/wages can improve, understaffed

Organization is dedicated to their EDIA-A plan and deliverables. They have a strong alignment with mental health advocacy and community support. It’s rewarding to be part of an organization making a real impact. CMHA Durham offers access to professional development and training in mental health services, trauma-informed care.

Working in this sector can be emotionally taxing and has risk of dealing with burnout. Salaries in the nonprofit/mental health sector can be lower compared to hospital sector roles. Community Sector gets limited government salary increases and this can lead to under-staffing /increased workloads during high-demand periods.
