Andrea recently completed training to become a social and community service worker, and is looking for employment in that field. She has hearing loss, which makes it difficult to communicate without hearing aids.

Having received skills training from WorkBC, she was referred to WorkBC Assistive Technology Services for funding for a new set of hearing aids.

“I am so very grateful,” she says. “Without hearing aids, I would be very limited in the types of work I can do. Having new hearing aids has given me the confidence to get back into the work world.”

Andrea recommends WorkBC Assistive Technology Services to others in need, describing WorkBC Assistive Technology Services staff as “most helpful and pleasant to work with.”
