Vocational Classes & Consultation

Program Details

Vocational Classes are for teens and young adults with special needs who need support preparing for, gaining, or keeping employment. The format allows participants to problem-solve issues, practice their skills, and share experiences. Classes will include discussion, role-play, video examples, and practice materials on topics that target communication, personal, and interpersonal issues in the workplace.
