Six and counting...

Howdy, folks - hope this note finds you as essence-ful as an infant who's miraculously escaped his/her diaper on a sunny summer afternoon.

Some of you will have heard this news already but, for those who haven't, changes to the provincially-funded employment services industry will result in the Compass program closing as of March, 2012. While we're sad to know that the yellow hive won't be continuing, we're also trusting that this development is part of a larger plan to have us deliver our work purposes in new and as-yet-undefined ways. We also plan to have a heck of a closing bash before our lease is officially up so keep your ears pealed for that.

More importantly, it means that we've only got six program cycles remaining and that equates to less than a hundred more folks having the opportunity to use our services. Therefore, we're putting the word out that, should you know of anyone who might benefit from our unique brand of support, it might be wise to put the bug in their ear sooner rather than later - we anticipate a bit of a crush for seats towards the end of the run.

Otherwise, we're here and available to support you as usual in the coming months.

And we always love hearing check-ins of how the paddle's going for you so feel free to send a note, should you be so inclined.

All the best,

~Bill (on behalf of Team Compass)


P.S. GO, CANUCKS, GO!
