Inspiring Success: Community Employment Partnership with Rotary Transforms Lives
Belonging Matters is a not-for-profit organisation, established in 2003). It is committed to improving the social inclusion and economic participation of people with a disability, focusing on intellectual disability and Autism. Its main aim is to provide education and advice to people with a disability, their families and supporters about community, belonging and economic contribution.
The Community Employment Partnership (CEP) is an initiative of Belonging Matters which is based on the Rotary Employment Partnership in Alberta, Canada.
CEP works with job seekers to identify and harness their own networks and connections in the community. It also works alongside service clubs and businesses to enhance their understanding about intellectual disability and autism and how they can tap into their networks to find meaningful job opportunities for people with disabilities.
