Project Hire aids workers in Toledo job training program
In Toledo an Ohio program by Rehabilitation Services Bureau trains people with employment barriers for hotel and restaurant work. Trainees include developmentally disabled, recovering alcoholics, epileptics, and slow learners who gain hands on skills at Holiday Inn Southwest earning 3.75 dollars an hour. Upon completion many receive recommendations and job offers, with ongoing support from counselors to secure further positions. The program, now two years old, has 66 starters since June with two thirds finishing and 34 placed, and a similar McJobs program operates with McDonald’s.
