Though being stricken with mental disorders that confined them to the margin of the society, people in recovery of mental illness are devoted and loyal workers who are eager to contribute to the society with their talents and skills, and through the employment to earn what they need to live independently and with dignity in the community. Are you willing to trust them and give them a chance?
If you are a visionary employer who wants to accommodate the disabled, we will be there for you to provide job matching services, so that you would be able to find the suitable candidates to fit in the designated positions. Our service users come with different backgrounds, including people in recovery of mental illness, the mentally handicapped, people with Autism Spectrum Disorder, the physically challenged, and the CSSA (Comprehensive Social Security Assistance) recipients who are unemployed and single parents. They are of different levels of education, work experiences, abilities and skills. We will arrange for the trainees to conduct job interviews according to the job requirements and their respective skill-mix. Moreover, our case workers and placement officers will provide support and follow-up services for a duration of 3-6 months for the employers and employed trainees after they have been employed, so as to make sure that assistance are at hand when it is needed.
For employers who are interested in employing our trainees, please contact Case Manager of Supported Employment Service at 2320 3103 or via email ses@nlpra.org.hk.
