About Us

Our organization was formed to provide business owners with a better understanding of the issues and benefits of hiring young adults with special needs. The employment rate for people with special needs is woefully low, estimated at 30% vs. 80% for the general work force.  We think that rate can be increased through more effective education for business owners.Our initial focus is to help young adults with intellectual developmental disabilities (IDD) living in Massachusetts to find part-time work.
