What started as one family’s vision has grown into a trusted organization supporting children, youth, and adults with developmental and physical disabilities across Guelph-Wellington. Today, Hopewell provides supported living, respite, and community programs that uphold the Oosterhuis family’s legacy - creating spaces where choice, belonging, and joy are at the heart of each day, and ensuring every person we serve can live a full and meaningful life.\nIf you’re ready to bring your leadership, compassion, and clinical expertise...","description_format":"text","description_chars":12182,"description_truncated":true,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":1,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Retirement plans"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Health Care","Nonprofits & Foundations","Disability Support Services"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-24T15:08:40Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":45,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.816,"p_room":0.55,"age_days":27,"expected_fill_days":27,"reasons":["conf:1","urgency","win:tail","comp:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-10-30T05:48:23Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":46000,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/hopewellsupport-clinical-educator-temporary","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/hopewellsupport-clinical-educator-temporary.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-30T10:39:34Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":15357,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-31T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":2670551},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=2670551"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fhopewellsupport-clinical-educator-temporary"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fhopewellsupport-clinical-educator-temporary"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fhopewellsupport-clinical-educator-temporary"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/hopewellsupport-clinical-educator-temporary\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fhopewellsupport-clinical-educator-temporary"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3208823}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"hopewellsupport.ca","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3208823},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
