Main Stream Employment
Picture yourself in a workplace where everyone’s skills and talents are valued equally. That’s what mainstream employment—also called open employment—is all about. It’s a chance for people with and without disabilities to work alongside one another in the same roles and workplaces. It’s an opportunity for you to contribute, develop skills, and thrive in a supportive and inclusive workplace. We are here to support you every step of the way—from finding a job, keeping a job, and providing ongoing support after you’re employed. Find out how we can help you achieve your employment goals during this exciting stage in your life!
Self Employment
Have you ever thought about turning something you love into your own small business? Maybe it’s a hobby you enjoy, a skill you’re really good at, or even an idea you’ve been sitting on for a while. What if you could turn that into a business, something you can proudly call your own and earn some money doing it? Do you dream about selling your handmade creations? Offering a service you’re passionate about? Or maybe creating something completely unique? Whatever it is, we’ll support you to bring your ideas to life. Starting a microenterprise might feel a little overwhelming, and that’s totally okay. You won’t have to do it alone. We’ll be here every step of the way—helping you plan it out, get started, and build something you’re proud of. We’re here to support you for as long as you need us. If you feel ready and confident to manage things on your own, that’s perfectly okay too. This is your microenterprise, and you are always in control. Would you like some support to figure it all out? Contact us and book an appointment for a chat—you might be closer to making it happen than you think!
