In light of the continued concerns we are facing as a community related to COVID-19, the Employment Help Centre (EHC) continues to update and make ongoing and necessary changes to our services. The EHC continues to provide in-person and virtual appointments to minimize person-to-person contact and ensure all visitors feel safe and comfortable in our space.
