WELCOME TO RE-EMERGE - THE NEXT CHAPTER IS FOR YOU
Re-emerge aimed to support family carers with their transitions back to paid employment. This involved focusing on the family carers emotional, physical and mental well-being along with the practical training required.
The Re-Emerge project ended in July 2024. We plan to begin Re-Emerge 2 in Spring 2025. If you would like to be kept informed about future projects, please email Amy: amy@carealliance.ie
Project manager Amy and project coordinator Lisa, through the Kaleidoscope and Return Ready projects have, since 2021, worked alongside over 200 family carers on their journey back to paid employment. We have learnt that alongside the necessary practical training required, family carers have also reported the need for supports with their overall well-being to ensure finding and retaining paid work is achievable.
Re-emerge delivered tailored workshops to address the practical, emotional and physical needs of family carers transitioning back to the work place.
Workshops Included
Practical Training: Career coaching, CV & Interview prep, IT training, job sourcing, further education support etc.
Mental Health Support: Access to mental health support groups, mindfulness, meditation, confidence building, peer interaction etc.

This project was approved by Government with support from the Dormant Accounts Fund.
