We have a new blog up on our website on the debate of whether to disclose a disability to employers - both the pros and the cons and some tips to help you decide. Many thanks to our very own GO-3D Coordinator Hannah for the excellent article! https://lnkd.in/eaPa9img

Say hello to Ryan! For Ryan, a job is more than just a paycheck—it's about making a meaningful impact on the community. When he first came to TEAM Work, Ryan was struggling with the challenges of ADHD and a brutal job search. Our service helped him secure a volunteer role at the Sable Island Society, where he engaged with the community and honed his skills. This experience eventually led to a position as the Community Engagement and Communication Coordinator with Circulate Community, a job that perfectly aligns with Ryan’s passions and provides a deep sense of purpose. The difference made by TEAM Work, particularly through our dedicated staff member James, was profound. Unlike Ryan’s previous experiences where follow-ups were rare, James consistently checked in, showing genuine care and commitment. This ongoing support made Ryan feel truly heard and valued, a stark contrast to the usual lack of communication and follow up he faced in his job search. Reflecting on his experience, Ryan said, “If more organizations were like TEAM Work, I think the world would be a much better place.” This sentiment captures the heart of what we strive to achieve—providing not just employment support, but a genuine partnership that makes a lasting impact on our clients' lives.
