And our employment program works for Joel. It's gradual and low-barrier and comes with the supports he's needed to get back into the swing of working a few times a week.
Like a lot of participants in Restart, Joel's first experience with homelessness came after losing a job. Now that he's housed in Community Builders supportive housing, he's motivated to get back to work as a way of building independence and stability.
The goal of Restart is to meet our residents where they're at and help them reconnect to the workplace without judgment or stigma.
Way to go, Joel. Keep up the great work.
