Programs We Offer
Pre-Employment Program
Our Pre-Employment Program is designed to help individuals develop the life and work skills they need for future employment. The program covers areas such as:
Life skills and personal development
Work skills training
Social skills building
Educational support, including literacy programs
Recreation and leisure activities to promote a balanced lifestyle
This program allows participants to engage in community events, connect with peers, and prepare for a brighter, more independent future. We operate Monday to Friday, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, and transportation is provided for clients within the Gander area.
