Celebrating Dedication and Support for Persons with Disabilities

July 21, 2015

The Neil Squire Society’s Atlantic regional office recently partnered with Summer Street (new window), located in New Glasgow, Nova Scotia (new window). Summer Street’s programs provide education, Julie Dignan, Employment Services, Summer Street and Beverly Grasse, Regional Manager/ Employment Specialist, Neil Squire Societyindependence, employment and pride of accomplishment. Their spectrum of services includes vocational, personal development, wellness, literacy, and employment. In-house social enterprises include catering and events, trophies, awards & corporate gifts, shredding and mail services.

Through this partnership we ran a pilot project of our Employ-Ability Program and it was a tremendous success, so much so, that we will soon be opening an office in New Glasgow.

Summer Street recently held an awards night, with well over 200 people in attendance, and presented an award to the Neil Squire Society for our dedication and support for Persons with Disabilities. This beautiful stained glass award was created by one of Summer Street’s clients for us.

Thank you Summer Street! We look forward to continued successes together.
