Program Description

Employment Resources provides employment assistance to high-risk youth facing multiple barriers to employment. 

A needs assessment is completed for all participants, which determines commitment, suitability of programming and referral to appropriate activities/services as necessary. 

Individual employment counselling and case management are provided. 

Workshops in the areas of workplace success, maintaining employment and job search strategies are also available. 

A part of the services offered is the Transitional Employment Support program, which provides youth with job placement assistance for casual, short-term, unsubsidized work placement. 

Participants are provided with the opportunity to secure a work related reference, to make employment contacts within the community and to ultimately gain work experience.

Hours of Operation:  Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Wednesdays 8:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
