Description
This poster reviews a pilot program that is a partnership between Starbridge, the Rochester City School District and the Strong Center for Developmental Disabilities. In 2019 this program, the Employment Discovery Network, hosted weekly sessions at RCSD with 18-21 year old students who were transitioning from school to employment. Each session focused on cultivating conversations around future planning, increasing employment readiness skills and knowledge, and increasing expectations for employment.Back to Session: Poster Symposium 5A: Employment
