Hills Shire Times

IF The Delta Clinic didn’t already strive hard enough to serve the Hills with its specialist child, adolescent and family mental health programs, it is also helping job seekers with special needs find work.

The clinic and its doctors, psychologists and psychiatrists have been working with Ability Options Employment for more than three years, referring its participants to Ability Options in order to find employment. Together, the two organisations have been changing people’s lives through therapy sessions and work.

The Delta Clinic’s director David Hong saw an opportunity to give back even more by offering employment to a few of Ability Options’ clients over the last three months.

“Employment is such an important part of people’s lives,” Mr Hong said.

“It gives them a sense of worth and importance and allows them to grow both personally and professionally.

In October 2015, The Delta Clinic was nominated by Baulkham Hills Council through the Australian Psychological Society for their contribution to the psychological wellbeing in the community.

We are proud to announce that in 2016, The Delta Clinic was nominated and became a finalist for the 2016 Sydney Hills Awards for Community Contribution at this year’s Orange Blossom Festival. It is such an honour to be a finalist and we are proud that our work is being recognised. With next year’s awards in mind, we will continue to contribute and serve the community.
