Lifelong Access

As we wrap up National Disability Employment Awareness Month, we're excited to share updates about our Supported Employment Program and spotlight one of our dedicated job seekers! With our recent three-year CARF accreditation, we'll be able to help more individuals and support more families. Currently, SEP has a waiting list of 14 - the largest its been since we’ve moved into our new building! Thank you to our Supported Employment staff for all you do to help individuals reach greater independence, and to every company who has partnered with us, including Rivian, DoubleTree, Target, and more! -- ⭐JOB SEEKER SPOTLIGHT⭐ Meet Sarah! She is charismatic, funny, and highly involved in her community. Sarah has had experience in childcare, food handling and cleaning but is open to new experiences! She would prefer an inside, part-time position where she can work around 10-15 hours a week. If you are interested in learning more about Sarah and what she can bring to your company, please send us a message!

Each year, all our employees go through annual training where our employees learn about safety, rules and regs, best practices for client care, and some company updates. Ours is online with a short in-person portion. How does your company handle annual training?
