Silvia Ochante, Martín Pérez, Roberto Salas and Gustavo Quispe, student workers of the Supported Employment Program at the Centro Ann Sullivan del Perú, started working at the Ministry of Health on February 1st. Tasks such as putting codes on documents, filing them and other ones have been assigned to them. In this way they become the first young people with different abiilities who work for public institutions.
An agreement reached between CASP and MINSA in October 2010 made possible this important hiring. It is part of a plan for promoting inclusion for people with different abilities into the Ministry of Health, a policy the present administration strongly supports.
