Community-Based Research Centre (CBRC) promotes the health of people of diverse sexualities and genders through research and intervention development. CBRC’s core pillars—community-led research, knowledge exchange, network building, and leadership development—position the organization as a thought leader, transforming ideas into actions that make a difference in our communities. CBRC was incorporated in 1999 and is a non-profit charitable organization. Our main office is located in Vancouver, British Columbia, and we have a satellite office in Toronto.
The Evaluation & Reporting team designs and implements strategies for evaluating CBRC projects and activities so that we can learn about the impacts of our work and about how we can make our work even better. We also share these learnings with our stakeholders, including community members, partners, and funders, through reporting mechanisms like the CBRC annual report.
CBRC believes in work led by and for the community. As part of our commitment to employment equity, we encourage applications from Indigenous people, Black people, and people of colour (IBPOC), Two-Spirit people, queer, trans and non-binary people, people living with HIV, people living with Hepatitis C, disabled people, 2S/LGBTQIA+ women, and other people with fabulous and diverse identities and experiences. CBRC acknowledges that not everyone is able to publicly disclose these identities, and we do not expect that employees will disclose this in the course of their work.
At CBRC, we recognize that some applicants have experienced barriers to traditional educational and employment opportunities. We consider various combinations of education, employment, volunteer, and lived experience and encourage applicants to highlight these experiences in their cover letter and resume.
CBRC does not use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to screen, assess, select, or interview job applicants. Every application is reviewed by a member of our Human Resources team. Applicants' personal and identifying information is stored securely and confidentially, and is not processed through AI software.
