Championing Ability...Enabling Success One of the challenges for people with special needs is finding and retaining meaningful jobs in the mainstream work world. We know from experience that, with opportunity and support, individuals with developmental disabilities are often able to work hard, learn, achieve and deeply enrich workplace culture. And through satisfying work they gain needed confidence, independence and improved quality of life. Ken's Kids enables individuals with developmental disabilities to successfully enter the world of work by providing access to good jobs and to professional training and support to prepare for and sustain employment. Through our time-tested model of one-on-one skills assessment, vocational training, job access and continuous support, we help individuals function at their highest levels in jobs at The Home Depot and CVS Caremark pharmacies. As employees, many of these individuals experience "mainstream" success, camaraderie and appreciation from their peers and communities for the first time in their lives. Their employers and co-workers are often surprised by the impact of their contributions on the work environment. And families see personal growth and professional development as signs their loved ones are on a new and hope-filled path toward increased independence and fulfillment.
