Website: Toronto District School Board
Location: Greater Toronto, Ontario
Program: Finding Work Program
Description: Prelude was successfully piloted with 15 Counsellors with the Finding Work Program in spring 09. It was then piloted again with 20 Clients of the Finding Work Program in summer 09. The game was integrated with a Social Networking & Goal Setting Tool from Flowork International. [Howard Esbin, Heliotrope founder, and J.P. Hatala, Flowork CEO, facilitated both pilots.] The response from Counsellors and Clients alike was highly positive. As a result, Heliotrope and Flowork were invited by the Canadian Education & Research Institute for Counselling [CERIC] to submit a proposal for further development of this exciting new integrated tool kit.
