TERRACE — ‘‘Chal-
lenge °86 has certainly
benefited the community
of Terrace and District
of Skeena,’’ stated Gary
Hirose, Project Officer
of the Employment
Development Branch, in
a recent réport on the
program’s success in the
local area.

“This year, of the 908
jobs created through the
Challenge °86 — British
Columbia Summer Em-
ployment Program in the
Skeena area, some 603
jobs have been a direct
result of federal funding
to non-profit organiza-
tions to accomplish a
range of activities wor-
thwhile to their cause
and to the community at
large,’’ Hirose said.

Students working on
these Challenge ‘86
agreements stand to gain
valuable work experience
related to their career or
field of study, he said.
Students in this area are
involved in a variety of
activities including
operation of a children’s
art camp, stream and
salmon enhancement,
and summer recreation
programs for children,

One example of a suc-

“cessful agreement, Hi-

rose pointed out, is at the
Terrace and District
Community Services.
Through Challenge '86,
this vocational program
was established to help
get mentally handicap-
ped workers into com-
munity service. Candy
Burkett, employed as a
vocational support
worker, works with men-
tally handicapped adults
on their job-keeping
skills and places them in-
to community-based po-
sitions. At the present
time, her clients, work-
ing on a ‘Beautify Ter-
race’? campaign, are

cleaning up a local park.

Candy said she has:

found that the skills she
has gained on this job
are very valuable; she is a
second year psychiatric
nursing student at the
Northwest Community
College. ‘‘I have learned
that patience and good
communication skills,
especially listening, are
very important in this
type of work,’’ she said.

Pamela Dow, Director
of the Self-Help Pro-
gram, stated that she is
extremely pleased with
Candy and with the work
she has done. “Candy is
doing well with her
clients; she is very pro-
fessional and a top stu-
dent. Candy will also
develop and organize an
employment workshop
and supervise other stu-
dent workers. As this is
the only service of its

oriented careers, such as
medicine and tourism.

Susan Zaporcan, a third- §

year UBC student, has

“her eye on a nursing

kind in the whole Skeena .

District, Challenge '86
has made this all possible
for Candy, for her
clients, and for the com-
munity.”

Challenge '86 funds
have also made it possi-
ble for four students to
provide much needed
services at the Ter-
raceview Lodge Society.
These students work
with the residents on dai-
ly activities and routines,
such as recreation.
Kathleen Delgatty, the
Lodge Administrator,
stated, ‘‘The students’
work has been very
valuable. They certainly
augment our present low
staff level.’’

As well as the benefits
to the residents, these
students also gain the
benefits or work ex-
perience and _ skills
related to their careers,
Hirose concluded. These
four students, he said,
are looking at people-

career. She said, ‘‘This

job has helped me with J

my interpersonal skills,

and is certainly related to

my career goals.’
