Employment & Job Training

Empower your career with Easterseals. From workforce development to financial literacy, we provide resources and support to succeed.

Overview

Employment as a Pathway to Independence and Success 

We deliver real-world impact, and we’ve seen this in thousands of communities across America—people who have experienced lasting difference through the power of gainful employment.  

We understand that older and younger people, with and without disabilities, can face great barriers to employment, independence, and community engagement. These barriers can lead to higher unemployment rates, increased financial hardship, and reduced quality of life. 

That’s why we focus on expanding opportunities in:  

  • Workforce development: Creating opportunities to secure employment and connecting job seekers with opportunities to upskill or reskill for in-demand entry-level jobs, including cyber security, data analysis, and other disciplines   

  • Financial and digital literacy: Enhancing personal responsibility with digital financial literacy education and resources that help people develop a competitive advantage 

Easterseals can help you select employment options and resources that best meet your circumstances. We not only want to enhance career prospects and educational opportunities—we want to build confidence and independence.
