Impact Stories
Back in the Workforce
After a period of mental health challenges that had kept her out of the workforce for over two years, a client joined the Employment Services program uncertain whether she was ready to work again. Her employment worker helped her identify transferable skills, update her resume, and practice for interviews — at a pace that worked for her. She secured part-time employment within four months and transitioned to full-time hours by year-end, with ongoing check-ins for workplace stabilization support.
