Integrated Employment Services

R.I.S.E. Employment · An Employment Ontario service

R.I.S.E. Employment connects Mount Dennis and west Toronto neighbours to jobs, training and employers — free of charge. R.I.S.E. is how JANS delivers Integrated Employment Services (IES), an Employment Ontario program.

Practical supports — including help with transportation — to remove barriers

The R.I.S.E. difference

Four values guide everything the program does:

Resilience — supporting people as they overcome barriers on their employment journey
Insight — helping each person understand their strengths, interests and goals
Skills — building the skills, knowledge and confidence to succeed at work
Empowerment — connecting people with opportunities that lead to independence and sustainable employment

More than job-search help

R.I.S.E. employment counsellors work with job seekers while job developers build relationships with local employers — so rather than just preparing you to look for work, the team actively bridges the gap by connecting you directly with employers who are hiring.
