Foundationews Cynthia Clocks out at 2 P.M TO PeopleA PUBLICATION OF PEOPLE INC. People SUMMER 2000 From Welfare to Working Donna McLaughlin, executive housekeeper at the Hampton Inn in Cheektowaga, believes in giving people a chance. She says she got her job because someone gave her a chance and now she does the same for others. “There’s good, working people everywhere. You have to give them a chance. How will you know someone is good unless you try?” said Donna. After interviewing Cynthia Parker, a 41 year old woman with limited long-term work experience, Donna practiced this philosophy. “I don’t do it often,” she said, “but I had a gut feeling about Cynthia. She presented herself very well, was neat and friendly. I hired her on the spot.” It’s the desire to want something better for her family and improve herself that motivates Cynthia to perform the following weekday ritual.

Page 7 Adult Services, Inc. to provide job training and She’s awesome!” Summer Dear Friends, As you read our cover story, you may have been surprised to learn of the extent of People Inc.’s employment and training services. This is one of the many areas that we have expanded over the years because of a need in the community and the strength of our experience. Due to intermittent work histories or limited further education, some people may be viewed as “hard to place.” Today, we assist hundreds of individuals with a variety of employment challenges, to prepare for and find jobs in Western New York. They may be viewed as a gamble. But as we have learned over the years, this is a stereotype that has been proven to be inaccurate again and again. Businesses that hire the people we assist benefit from lower turnover and reliable, diligent workers. Everywhere you look, “Help Wanted” signs are posted on retail stores, restaurants and local businesses throughout Western New York. It seems everyone is looking for help–sales people, wait staff, human service workers, housekeepers and managers. There are people ready and waiting to fill these positions. Graduates of local job training programs are qualified, capable, enthusiastic applicants and yet they are often overlooked by employers. Only after successfully completing intensive training are candidates matched with appropriate jobs based on their interests and abilities. Once placed in a position, job coaches work closely with employees to ensure that they meet the goals established to be successful at People Inc. exists to their work site. enable individuals in It’s a beneficial situation for businesses. Open positions are filled by committed, hard working employees who stay on the job and receive substantial on-going support and training from Western New York agencies like ours. There’s no fee to companies for these services and it’s a boost for the local economy. People move off public assistance and become tax paying citizens. with disabling conditions to We are pleased to open doors for people with employment barriers, whatever their function in an accepting challenges may be, and to help produce a qualified, energetic workforce to fill positions for WNY employers.
