Full-Time Technology for Independent Living (TIL) Technician

Technology for Living is in search of an enthusiastic, performance driven, team-focused and compassionate individual, who would like to use their intellectual, technical, and detailed-focus skills and experiences to support the Technology for Independent Living (TIL) department



The largest gift ever to Technology for Living will establish the Stuart Belkin Education Fund. The $250,000 gift from BC philanthropist Stuart Belkin will provide equipment to reduce the barriers for people with mobility issues, enabling them to participate more fully in their homes and communities. On behalf of the Board of Directors, the staff, and the members of Technology for Living (TFL), we would like to express our deepest gratitude for this impactful gift.


We provide assistive devices and supports for members with physical disabilities – so you can achieve your goals and have the opportunity to participate fully in life.

You make the final decisions about what you need, and we do our best to meet those needs for you.

We continue to design our programs and services and adapt to changing needs and to changes in technology.
