Employment With Supports Program Showcase - Part 2

In part two of our showcase of the Employment With Supports Program, James interviews Sarah - a mental health recovery champion currently involved as a participant with the employment program. She shares her story of recovery and you will see how incredible her resilience and strength is. I was so inspired to hear it, and although you can't see my face, I was beaming with a smile knowing the strength inherent in Sarah, and in turn, all of us. You will understand what it is like to be a part of the program as a participant, from reaching out to graduating with employment secured. Most importantly, you will find hope. Employment with Supports at CMHA Manitoba & Winnipeg provides the tools and information for the achievement of satisfying and successful employment. A rapid employment approach is used to support participants looking to join or return to the workforce.
