SUCCESS STORY 🎉 Fran had a stable job for 15 years, but she had some insights to predict that change was likely coming, and she could see that her job was coming to an end. Knowing she needed to be proactive, she started looking for new opportunities. Unfortunately, most jobs she found didn't match her skills or pay well enough to sustain her needs as a single parent. “I started to think ahead about what would happen next in my life.” That's when she turned to WorkBC Centre Revelstoke. She had visited them years prior under different circumstances so she knew she could rely on WorkBC again. With their help, she discovered the Self-Employment Program. This program provided her with financial support and resources to start her own bookkeeping business. Fran attended entrepreneurial workshops and received mentorship and encouragement. She was pleased to be able to give some GST advice to others in her cohort at one of the workshops as she has expertise in that area. Fran was initially nervous about starting a business, but with WorkBC's guidance, she gained the confidence and knowledge she needed. “I had no idea that I would even qualify for the Self-Employment Program.” Even when she faced a health setback, WorkBC Centre Revelstoke was there to support her. They accommodated her time off and referred her to WorkBC Assistive Technology Services to complete an ergonomic assessment so she could be provided with an ergonomic workstation. Thanks to their support and her dedication, Fran was able to successfully launch and grow her own business. “The living supports gave me the security to fall back on should I not be able to find clients who would hire me soon enough. It is scary when you first start out. There is no certainty of whether you will be able to make a living with your business.” Reach out to WorkBC Centre Revelstoke to discover how we might assist you as well! https://hubs.la/Q02R5xMb0 P: 250.814.0244 E: info-revelstoke@workbc.ca #SuccessStory #EmploymentGoals #WorkBC #MyWorkBCStory
