Employment Opportunities
School to Work: Seeking highly motivated families with a son or daughter between the ages of 17-30 in need of individualized employment strategies to attain employment before high school graduation or soon after. Although our service system has spent a lot of time and money on school to work transition only 14% of Californians with developmental disabilities are working in individualized job settings after graduation. We think it is time to change that number. Education, Empowerment and Employment for Success , funded by the California State Council on Developmental Disabilities, partners Jay Nolan Community Services and Easter Seals/WorkFirst will use Customized Employment strategies to create person centered employment teams, discover each person's unique skills, talents and interests and determine vocational themes. Based on this information we will develop creative wage and self -employment options. assist people with disabilities to find meaningful and profitable employment.Training and consultation will be provided to transition students, young adults, and their families to increase awareness and understanding in developing real employment opportunities.
