The Embracing Diversity project has now been in existence since 2002 and during that time we have helped many people from very diverse backgrounds into employment. These case studies give an insight into the work we do and the people we support. The "read more" documents require Adobe Acrobat reader which you can get free by clicking on the Adobe link.
Supported Employment / How does it work? We work with people from disadvantaged backgrounds and help them prepare for and find work. When we approach a company we will normally already have a person in mind. We will have assessed abilities and interests, and will have done some work to ‘match’ the person to type of employment. We put in a considerable amount of time getting to know the person, assessing their strengths and potential, and researching appropriate local employment opportunities. We work very closely with employers to ‘match’ the right person to the right job. Sometimes we break down tasks or instructions so that it is easier for an employee to do the job. In other cases, we work alongside the employee in the initial stages of employment. We provide on-going support to both employer and employee and there is no charge to either for the service we provide. Embrace Diversity - Believe in Success - Value Difference.
