Kathleen Moir is the Manager of Infinite Employment Solutions with AIMHI in Prince George.

Kathy provided the Nechako Rotary Club with a detailed presentation on many of the factors involving the hiring of people with disabilities within the community.  Disabilities can be identified in a number of ways from both physical and mental. 

AIMHI has a remarkable track record of working with disabled people in our community, assisting these people with preparing themselves for employment, as well as working with business in the community to help provide employment opportunities.

Many people with disabilities can or only want to work part time hours within a week, providing an opportunity for some companies to select or provide specific jobs for people with disabilities.

Many companies have found significant return on investment for hiring people with disabilities.  These disabled people have displaced honest and reliable service skills in return for the opportunity for a job.

AIMHI also provides community services such as gardening, lawn care, snow removal, etc. with the aide of disabled workers, with reasonable competitive rates.  AIMHI provide supervision for these people while they are carrying out the work they have been hired to do. 

Rotarian Neil Godbout thanked Kathy for her presentation, with another donation to our Rotary Polio Plus Program.
