About this service

Full Steam Ahead is our employment and career exploration program for people with disabilities. We believe and practice independent living in the Full Steam Ahead program so people make their own choices, take risks, and control their own career directions.

Participants have an active role in our career program, and give input on how the program functions for them. The program does not have a set structure, because you create an individual program based on your goals and what you want to do.

We can connect you with any adaptive technology that you need to increase your independence during this process, and educate you on how to request accommodations while in the workplace.

Other ways the program can help you:

Starting a business

Learning more about computers and the internet

Funding for college or university

Finding a career that is best for you

Interacting with employers after youve been hired

Your rights as an employee with a disability

Other places you can go for help
