Over a month into #shawleveryday2019 and there's still lots more to talk about! As a reminder, I am raising money for the Independence Center, which provides help and services to those experiencing serious and persistent mental health issues. You can donate to my campaign (funds go directly to Independence Center and not through me) or I will donate half the sale price of any shawl purchased.

One of the services Independence Center provides is employment assistance, including:

  • Instruction in resume preparation

  • Interview training

  • Assistance with individualized job searches

  • Employment workshops

  • Job development

  • Job placement services

  • On-the-job training and supports

  • Ongoing follow-up for both the employer and employee

  • Lifetime job retention and upgrading services

They work with almost 100 local employers to place members in Transitional Employment, Independent Employment, and Supported Employment. Adults with mental illness can and want to work, and Independence Center can help.
