Removing employment barriers for adults with disabilities.
Removing employment barriers for adults with disabilities.
Our Career Services program helps individuals with any type of disability to secure and retain competitive, community-based jobs. We offer personalized training and ongoing support to job seekers, empowering them to reach their employment goals and become valuable community members.
We work closely with each individual to set tailored goals, providing the resources needed to explore, obtain, and maintain employment. This approach fosters self-worth, financial independence, and improved quality of life.
In partnership with Vocational Rehabilitation, Rehabilitation Services for the Blind, and local educators, we assist individuals through the intake process. Contact your coordinator or counselor, or reach out to us directly to get started.
