Government of Canada helps people with disabilities in Kamloops and surrounding areas get jobs
KAMLOOPS, BRITISH COLUMBIA, January 12, 2008—At least 420 people with disabilities in Kamloops and surrounding areas will be better prepared to find meaningful employment through a new project announced today by Ms. Cathy McLeod, Member of Parliament for Kamloops–Thompson–Cariboo. Ms. McLeod made the announcement on behalf of the Honourable Diane Finley, Minister of Human Resources and Skills Development, at the BC Society of Training for Health and Employment Opportunities (THEO BC) office in Kamloops.

“The Government of Canada is helping Canadians with disabilities become more active in the work force and in their communities,” said Ms. McLeod. “Through the Employment Assistance Services program, we support community organizations that help Canadians find jobs.”

This project will enable THEO BC to help participants gain the skills they need to prepare for, obtain and maintain employment. Individuals will take part in orientation sessions and disability employment needs assessments, as well as develop a career action plan. Other services offered by THEO BC include job coaching and volunteer work placements to help participants become job-ready.

The Government of Canada is providing $762,212 in funding for this project, which reflects its commitment to working in partnership with communities and stakeholders to provide Canadians with the training, skills and opportunities they need to participate in the work force and contribute to the life of their communities.

“The Province of British Columbia recognizes the import!ance of support for our citizens seeking employment,” said the Honourable Rich Coleman, Minister of Housing and Social Development. “Working alongside the federal government to ensure people have skills in place to participate in our job market is a priority.”

The Employment Assistance Services program is delivered by Service Canada, which provides one-stop personalized services for Government of Canada programs, services and benefits. People interested in more information about this program can call 1 800 O-Canada, go on the Internet at servicecanada.gc.ca, or visit their local Service Canada Centre.
