EMPLOYMENT

Meaningful employment is the cornerstone of an independent, happy life. This is no different for “typical” people than it is for people with Down syndrome or any other disability for that matter. Take a look around you and you will see more and more people with disabilities in the workforce. Their numbers will only continue to grow as inclusion and acceptance of people with disabilities become more common place.

If you want to learn about employment options, programs and companies that hire people with disabilities, this is the place to start. This page contains information about area programs that help people with disabilities find employment, job training and job assistance.
