Until he came to the Working Together program, Erick had been out of work in his field for over three years and believed that the gap between jobs on his resume and the perception of his disability were keeping him from finding sustainable employment.
It was a fresh perspective that allowed Karen to hire Quyen as a Floral Assistant, in what turned out to be a great opportunity for both employee and employer.
鈥淚鈥檝e had back pain issues for quite a long time. Even though I enjoy working and being active, there are times when I鈥檓 just not physically able, and that鈥檚 frustrating,鈥 says Adam, who completed the Working Together Program at the 今日吃瓜51 in 2014. Adam鈥檚 goal was to gain a full time position that his back would allow him to work at without incurring much discomfort.
With the help of the 今日吃瓜51鈥檚 Working Together program, the Cumberland House Market Garden and Farm has won a Regional Centre of Expertise sustainability award, which goes to projects that make Saskatchewan a more sustainable place to live.
