Darlene K.,

"I have become more self-confident, accept my responsibilities, have improved my social skills and have made many friends. I am glad that I am employed at CAB cafeteria. It is a very important part of my life as I live on my own. I know that Sections will always be there for support in all I do."

Our Employment Partners Say:
"Selections clients grow from the socialization. The general public (staff) grows from working with a disabled person. Perceptions are changed as a result. Selections supplies us with a reliable, consistent solid workforce. The clients are dedicated and less likely to miss a shift than our other employees, Hiring a client from Selections takes some of the pressures of everyday jobs off our staff. The relationship also provides Selections clients with a sense of pride at doing a job well done."
Miles Jewett,
General Manager, (Employment Partner since 1986)

"We hire clients because of the support provided by Selections. Selections provides training, immediate response to concerns and action plans are implemented. The CDC's (Career Development Coordinators) have a positive influence on their clients. It feels good to see people succeed."

Tony Roma’s
"We employ these young adults because with proper training and supervision they become assets to our business. They're energetic, enthusiastic and team players. There is a need for career support services because in our experience it aids the individuals in attaining a higher level of self worth. It enables these individuals to integrate into mainstream society and feel they are making their own contribution."
Jeff Planden & Brent Smith,
Sherwood Park Dairy Queen (Employment Partners since 2001)
Our Parents/Guardians say:
"Selections is like one big happy family. The staff are always there for their clients, families and employers. When something occurs it is dealt with. Selections is flexible, not rigid if something does not work they change it. The support from Selections has given my nephew the tools he needs to succeed in maintaining his employment. This has given him a sense of self- worth, independence, accomplishment and purpose."
Huguette Schatz,
Aunt of Marc (a Selections client since 1990)
"Without help from Selections, I am sure that our daughter would not have developed the way she has. I know that I would not have been able to find and develop the job opportunities that Selections has on her behalf. The counsellors are able to match the individual with the position to obtain the best results for both the employer and the employee. Everyone needs to feel that they are useful and needed and this is particularly true of persons with disabilities. I cannot say enough about the Selections staff and I am grateful for all their assistance. "
Gordon Watton,
Father of Jackie (a Selections client since 1992 )
