Job Opportunity - BCAPOM Project Coordinator/ VANDU Community Organizer, Vancouver Area Network of Drug Users, Vancouver, BC
What is BCAPOM? BCAPOM (British Columbia Association People on Opiate Maintenance) is a peer-led
coalition whose mission is to support, defend and protect opiate maintenance users’ rights to live free
from obstacles caused by stigma and oppression. BCAPOM’s membership consists exclusively of people
who are on OAT medications, including methadone, suboxone, kadian, iOAT and all other prescribed
antagonist medications.
BCAPOM operates under the umbrella of VANDU (Vancouver Area Network of Drug Users). We hold
weekly membership meetings (open to all members) and board meetings (open to elected board
member representatives). With this hiring process BCAPOM hopes to support the creation of a project
coordinator staff role, and adapt and evaluate its usefulness for a term of 3 months. Pending a review
after 3 months, we will consider a long-term extension of this role.
