Residents at the Foundation have been assisted in
securing a wide variety of jobs. Utilizing program and
community resources, resident job matches are developed.
To ensure successful matches, the Foundation provides job
coaching at time of placement (and whenever requested by
resident or employer), job support groups and liaison
support between the resident, employer and program.
This work continues for the length of the resident's
employment.
Some placements the residents enjoy include:
County Clerks Office
Public Library
Travel Agency
Stock Market Research Firm
Day Care Facility for Children with Disabilities
Golf Course
Grocery Stores

In addition, the Foundation hosts a Work Center where residents who are unemployed, work Monday
through Friday. The work consists of contracted tasks for companies such as Comcast Cable Company.
