Success story for September 2016
Maria began receiving services from NorthPointe in 2007 as a member of the mental health program, SOARR. In March 2008 Maria was offered a position as a “Prosumer” for the SOARR department (a Prosumer is a person who is receiving services through the SOARR program and is also a paid employee at NorthPointe). After becoming a Prosumer, Maria developed the following goals: to move out of the nursing home where she was living; to live independently in the community, and to get a job and work in the community. Maria was steadfast in realizing her goals and joined the training program in the Employment Resources Department to develop the skills necessary to become a sales associate.
Maria’s hard work lead to great success. Today, Maria has a job as a sales associate at Walgreens and lives in her own apartment in the community.
