The experience of individualized workplace programs

Individualized workplace programs are a whole new way of supporting our members towards integration or a return to work. These platforms are available because of the wonderful collaboration of our community as well as the partnership with local employers.

Depending on the member’s interest, the skills required and he personal goals (e.g. work on perceptions, better management of anxiety, getting into action, etc.), we offer the opportunity to work with the designated partner for 8 weeks at the rate of 5 working hours per week. The employer partner is aware of the member’s goals and is committed to helping them achieve their objective, in partnership with the mental health recovery worker.

L’Éveil de Brome-Missisiquoi offers remuneration to participants to cover expenses that may be incurred by the work boards. That’s why we have a limit of individual work boards to offer per year.
