Opis

There are numerous challenges, hardships and anxieties to overcome when one is affected by illnesses, financial setbacks, and other traumas. Lives are shattered, homes are broken, marriages and relationships sometimes fail. Many face lack of social and personal skills, lack of education, job training and job skills. All these may lead one to homelessness, economic hardships, and into poverty. It is heart breaking and socially unacceptable, that stigma and discrimination are still in the workplace. This has erected many obstacles to searching for, getting or keeping a job. Missing years in the workforce also presents barriers to begin a job search or in being hired. This can result in stresses, frustrations, fears, and discouragement. Further, the job market is extremely competitive. The unemployment rate is high. This bleak situation keeps the recovering population at an ever-increasing financial disadvantage. The Author's son and daughter needed all possibilities and opportunities to help enrich their lives. Their job search process was discouraging, because of the social barriers. Additionally, they needed further education, self-development, job readiness training, and life skills training to make a career commitment. Overcoming these barriers and learning new personal skills will prepare individuals for the job market and incent those capable of entrepreneurial creativity to start new businesses. Taking the initiative is crucial in finding a job. One has to be organized and adaptable to the job market. After suffering from illnesses, financial setbacks, and other traumas, rebuilding one's life can be a very difficult task. This Trainers' Manual details how Alyse King trained her son and daughter with self-development skills as well as job readiness skills for the job market. For a detailed account of her journey with caring for her family as a single mother of children with chronic illnesses and how she overcame societal stigmas to help her children develop into adults who enjoy the dignity of work and living independently, read "A Letter to Schizophrenia From a Mother" and "How I Won the Fight," available at amazon.com: Studies have shown that illnesses, financial setbacks, and other traumas can lead to unemployment, homelessness, poverty, and crime. Lack of adequate education, job skills training, personal skills training, job readiness training, and job opportunities all present heavy cost burdens to society. If a person does not get help in a timely manner with developing skills for the workforce, they will begin to spiral downward into poverty. Rebuilding and integrating into society is not easy. It requires love, support, and empathy from every source and sector of society, but especially from loved ones. It requires patience, training and education. As the number of individuals who show empathy increases, bridging the gap on making progress in their lives, and in the workplace will also increase. The information in this Trainers' Manual has proven to help with rebuilding lives.
