Partners in Employment getting funding for program for people with disabilities

Partners in Employment is getting some more federal funding.

The agency will be launching a project to help 24 people with disabilities in Stratford and the surrounding area develop their job skills.  They’re getting $133,000 for the project.

Perth-Wellington MP Gary Schellenberger made the announcement Monday on behalf of the Minister of State for Social Development.  This comes on the heels of Friday’s announcement that Partners in Employment will be getting $345,000 for a youth employment project.
