This thesis contains three papers that examine the socially supportive experiences of working at social purpose enterprises across Canada. The first paper presents a mixed-methods study exploring the range of work-centered social supports that can be part of the social purpose enterprise experience. From the perspective of managers and supervisors of these organizations, it explores the potential influence of these supports on the work outcomes and overall wellbeing of participants who often face significant and multiple barriers to employment.

520 $a This thesis contains three papers that examine the socially supportive experiences of working at social purpose enterprises across Canada. The first paper presents a mixed-methods study exploring the range of work-centered social supports that can be part of the social purpose enterprise experience. From the perspective of managers and supervisors of these organizations, it explores the potential influence of these supports on the work outcomes and overall wellbeing of participants who often face significant and multiple barriers to employment.
520 $a From the perspective of employees and job training participants, the second paper quantitatively examines the influences of practical and emotional social support on changes in participants' personal and vocational wellbeing during their time at the social purpose enterprises. Through participants' own personal accounts, the final paper explores the nature and meaning of their experiences of social support, both as provider and recipient of support.
520 $a Findings from all three studies point to the importance of matching social support to the needs and goals of the employees and training participants, as well as the relevance of how people perceive their experiences of being supported in determining whether they actually benefit from the support. Presenting social purpose enterprises as vehicles for mobilizing social support through alternative work arrangements draws attention to the number of vulnerabilities faced by people most socially and economically excluded, of which employment is but one area requiring attention. This research contributes to a growing body of literature that demonstrates the holistic way these organizations can address issues of long-term employment exclusion as well as individual and community wellbeing more broadly.
