Overview

Overview

The We Can Work Program assists special education students with exploring the world of work. From providing pre-employment training which includes developing a master job application, resume writing, interviewing skills, behavioral expectations/ conflict resolution skills on the job, and soft skills. We Can Work Program staff work with students to develop a plan that meets the interests, abilities, and aptitudes of each individual student. The program provides paid work experience services for up to 100 hours each school year. This gives students the opportunity to earn a paycheck while developing skills that can translate to employment post high school.
