Empower Work's approach fuels positive change in three key ways: 1) the org's text line provides immediate, confidential support at critical work moments via trained peer counselors improving emotional and economic outcomes, 2) trained peer counselors utilize their robust training not just on the line, but in their workplaces, and; 3) aggregate, anonymous data from the conversations inform new approaches, tools, trainings, and policies for systemic workplace change. Empower Work started because of a critical gap: over 80% of working Americans haven't had a trusted place to turn, impacting emotional and economic wellbeing ([273]). Empower Work's approach and impact has been covered most recently related to the mental health toll of COVID-19 in The Wall Street Journal, NPR, and Yahoo Life. The organization's support for worker wellbeing has been featured in Forbes, Quartz, Fast Company, TechCrunch, TheRinger, and more.

This investment will transform Ontario’s air ambulance service, particularly in Northeastern Ontario. It will bring two new highly trained, 24/7 critical care crews to this region, using one of the most versatile, high performing aircraft in its category. By adding an additional fixed wing base, Ornge will be able to bring life saving care to patients across Ontario – and particularly the Northeast – while shortening response times and improving availability.)

In order to accomplish these goals, PLS staff actively advocate for prisoners' rights through litigation, participation in legislative prison reform proposals, submission of formal comments and testimony regarding proposed regulations affecting prisons and prisoners, public education initiatives, and community organizing. PLS’ Board of Directors includes attorneys from private firms and legal services offices, non-attorney criminal justice reformers, a psychiatrist, and current/former prisoners. Eight of the board members are women. The 21 PLS staffers include an attorney executive director, staff attorneys, paralegals, administrative/development staff, a fellow working to improve the conditions of incarcerated women specifically, and a contract bookkeeper. This staff serves approximately 13,000 state and county prisoners. Occasionally PLS is able to refer matters to members of the private bar. In recent years, referred matters have included guard brutality cases, medical parole cases, disability discrimination, medical malpractice and wrongful death claims.

Vibrance officially launched its new name on 24th June 2013 when it also became a registered Charity. The organisation has evolved tremendously over the last 30 years and it was clear that the name RCHL was not able to reflect where we are now and what we strive to be. The name of Vibrance was chosen after extensive consultations with stakeholders, board members, staff and most importantly, service users as it felt it provided a perfect match to our ethos of enabling people to have real control over their lives. Everyone at Vibrance can now build on the successful foundations built up by RCHL so we have bid a fond farewell to our old name and look forward to a positive new future. Vibrance employs around 400 people and provides services in nine local authority areas. Vibrance has held Investors in People Gold accreditation since 2016 and is an accredited Disability Confident Employer.
