Matthew has been a member of Progress Place since early 2019. He is a member of the First Floor Unit and enjoys helping out in the digital media studio. Matthew had expressed interest in employment soon after becoming a member. Matthew started off doing handbill delivery as part of our group employment program. Matthew also participated in another group employment project, the Church Wellesley BIA! A small group of members and staff planted hundreds of flowers and helped beautify the neighbourhood ahead of patio season! Recently, Matthew started his first TEP position (Transitional Employment Program). Matthew is working a support position at Chef's Hall restaurant 3 days a week. He helps keep the restaurant clean for guests to enjoy their meals! We hope Matt's journey inspires other members to pursue their employment goals.
