Employment is for Everyone!

Employment is for Everyone. Work is more than work in that we often define ourselves by what we do, we talk about work, we make friends at work, we share stories about work. That is one of the reasons we are so glad that the Florida Developmental Disabilities Council spends time and effort help supporting work for individuals with disabilities.  The Florida Developmental Disabilities Council was established in 1971 and has planned and provided  access to individual and family-centered supports for persons with disabilities.  Within these activities, a top priority has been employment for adults with developmental disabilities.

This video summarizes some of the strategies and approaches that help guide successful employment which leads to greater independence.
