Success Story: Able House

By John Collins • September 5, 2024
Maeggan expressed her interest to Jennifer Brassard, the House Manager at Able House. After some discussion, Jennifer suggested that Maeggan explore MHA's employment services program tailored for program participants. The employment specialist works under MHA's Division of Recovery and Housing (DRH) and their role includes helping participants with their resumes, conducting mock interviews, seeking and applying for jobs and benefits, as well as advocating for them in the community. The employment specialist and Maeggan met several times throughout Maeggan’s job search. Each time, they practiced interview questions and etiquette. “The employment specialist guided me throughout the whole process. They helped me build my resume and practice mock interviews. They believed in me and made me believe what they saw in me. What I could accomplish.”
