On October 3, Guy Blanchette, a graduate of the MIRE (Movement for Integration and Retention in Employment)<\/a> Program, was invited to speak at the RSSMO (R\u00e9seau des services sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9s de main-d\u2019\u0153uvre) conference about his experience in the employment reintegration program<\/a>. His heartfelt testimonial is below (in French):<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

MIRE a apport\u00e9 dans ma vie une confiance et surtout une d\u00e9termination \u00e0 retourner sur le march\u00e9 du travail.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Quand je suis arriv\u00e9 \u00e0 MIRE, je ressentais l’angoisse de l’inconnu et je ne savais pas si j’\u00e9tais \u00e0 la bonne place, mais apr\u00e8s seulement quelques minutes, je me suis senti \u00e0 ma place.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

La fa\u00e7on dont le personnel nous a accueillis avait tout pour nous mettre en confiance. Le professionnalisme et l’\u00e9coute des agents de main-d’\u0153uvre faisaient en sorte que j’\u00e9tais \u00e0 l’aise et pr\u00eat \u00e0 m’investir dans le processus de recherche d’emploi.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Gr\u00e2ce aux ateliers, aux jeux de r\u00f4les ainsi que la formation informatique et la bonne fa\u00e7on de faire un curriculum vitae, je me sentais bien outill\u00e9 pour faire face \u00e0 un nouvel emploi.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

L’\u00e9quipe m’a beaucoup aid\u00e9 \u00e0 travailler sur mes faiblesses et aussi \u00e0 exploiter mes forces. Apr\u00e8s les huit semaines de formation, j’\u00e9tais gonfl\u00e9 \u00e0 bloc et j’\u00e9tais tr\u00e8s confiant de me trouver un emploi qui me satisferait.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

L’\u00e9quipe de suivi \u00e9tait vraiment avec et pour moi. Apr\u00e8s plusieurs essais\/erreurs, je me suis toujours senti appuy\u00e9 dans mes d\u00e9marches, et chose primordiale, c’est que jamais je ne me suis senti jug\u00e9 dans mes choix et d\u00e9cisions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Aujourd’hui, je travaille chez Portage depuis un peu plus d’un an comme commis-comptable. Je me sens enfin quelqu’un, je suis heureux comme un poisson dans l’eau, et tout \u00e7a, je le dois \u00e0 la merveilleuse \u00e9quipe de MIRE.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
