The Agency


The Calgary John Howard Society (CJHS) is a charity that reduces crime and makes Calgary communities safer by helping youth and adults make positive changes and move away from criminal behaviour.

Employment Services programming in the agency provides trauma-informed employment preparation, skill development and certification training for adults who have been criminally involved.

As a component of agency employment services programming, the Learning Enhanced Employment Program (LEEP) is delivered in a structured three-week group format offered eight times per year, in addition to condensed summer workshops.

Service delivery includes specific employment-related group workshops and opportunities for clients to complete industry certification training to enhance employability and confidence in securing and maintaining employment.

LEEP is integrated with individualized employment service programming at the agency, all of which address barriers to employment and move individuals away from poverty and towards socio-economic well-being.
