I would not Recommend this place to Any1 I tried to get Help from them couple of months ago and all they did was waste my time. Pacified mefalsely assured me they could Help Me with jobs They were suppose to Help me with job searches Excedra All I did was sign papers after papers Months went by. I kept callingcalling Staff never returned any of my phone calls The Receptionist is RudeDismissive . They were always in Bored MeetingsIve had to make Complaints expressed Frustration I admit.They just cared about Quotas their Financial gain from government .Bad Experience
Great place for adults with disabilities they have great staff there and I see how they have worked with there clients they do a phenomenal job especially Sandra her clients really respect her and she really respects them and you could see how much she loves her clients and her job and as well how much time she takes to teach them values and respect and how to be responsible take accountability and also teaches them to be confident in who they are
We have a formal complaint currently pending through the regional center and as well an attorney who is very interesting in this case considering the way my son and myself were treated at this facility. The people who are considering themselves management of this facility are in no way trained to be there or should be there because they use fear and intimidation tactics toward these young people. The promises they make to find employment and give you opportunities to experience a variety of different kinds of jobs before you commit to anything... never happens. They meet you and greet you and promise you the world and then they dont show up to deliver.Almost a year and nothing that they promised happened including a resume and going through all of the necessary domains that they are required to cover. There are some very mean spirited and hateful people in this building particularly Jessica and I for one have sat in meetings with them on more than 1 occasion and seen this for myself. One of those meetings included the representative from the regional center and the representative from the department of rehabilitation.It is so egregious that we are moving forward legally to prosecute and hold accountable the people in this place that are doing such harm to so many. While my son has left that facility due to some incredibly inappropriate behavior on behalf of Jessica and Mitch we will not stop until justice is done and we can know for sure that all of the friends Jared made will be safe and receive the proper training and opportunities that they and my son were all offered coming in the door.We reached out to one of the Board of Directors and spoke with Grady. We spoke with him once and he was to get back to us. He was unavailable when I returned his call and that was over a month ago and he has never once reconnected with us.This goes to the behavior of the entire facility. They are unengaged uninformed and poorly treating these young people. The poor communication inside this facility is alarming to say the least. Even the board of directors cannot follow up adequately.It is unconscionable that they have any right at all to run this organization and that this many board of directors are not completely familiar with the egregious processes and poor communication and treatment of their clients that go on here. This time they came in contact with the wrong people.We will hold them fully accountable and they will be brought to justice for the way they have behaved and gotten away with it for who knows how long. For those of you who have your children there you need to do better and pay more attention. My son is inundated with phone calls from their current clients who are still suffering and afraid and want out. This is not what our Autistic adults and adolescent kids of a disabled nature came there for. They are doing far more damage than they are doing good. And they lie like rugs.I am one upset Parent. They have no idea how far I will go to shine a light on people who accept money as a non profit and pocket it while treating their clients like dogs.Note Mitch is NOT an Owner and the statements he is making are frivolous and untrue. The Regional Center and Dept of Rehab have agreed.My Son loved it there and made friends he cherishes.These people are Bullies. Its that simple. Noone should be approached and ambushed in an effort to create fear in them. Noone
Great place for our special aid adults people are very professinal and caring
A friend is in a work program here and he loves it
Grateful for all the nice employees staff what a grate business with hard working individuals
Hi. This. Vanessa.
Frequently Asked Questions
Autistic adults, like all individuals, have diverse skills and interests. Here are six examples of popular jobs among autistic and neurodivergent adults:
- Computer programming and IT: Many autistic adults have a natural aptitude for logical thinking and attention to detail, which can make them well-suited to careers in computer programming, software development, and other areas of IT.
- Engineering: Roles in engineering also require logical thinking and attention to detail, as well as the ability to solve complex problems. Autistic individuals may find engineering particularly rewarding due to the opportunity to design and build structures or systems.
- Science: Many autistic individuals have a fascination with science and may be particularly drawn to careers in fields such as biology, chemistry, or physics.
- Art and design: Some autistic individuals have a keen eye for detail and a strong visual sense, which can make them well-suited to careers in art and design.
- Writing and editing: Autistic individuals may have a strong attention to detail and the ability to focus intensely on a task for long periods, which can make them effective writers and editors.
- Entrepreneurship: Some autistic individuals may be well-suited to entrepreneurship, as they may have a unique perspective on business and may be able to identify unmet needs in the marketplace.
It's important to note that these are just a few examples, and there are many other careers that may be well-suited to the strengths and preferences of autistic individuals. Ultimately, the best career for an autistic person will depend on their individual interests, skills, and abilities.
No, there are no jobs that autistic people should avoid. Autistic people, like neurotypical people, have a wide range of skills, interests, and abilities, and can excel in many different types of jobs.
However, some autistic people may find certain jobs more challenging than others, depending on their individual strengths and weaknesses. For example, jobs that require a lot of social interaction or have unpredictable schedules may be more difficult for some autistic individuals, while jobs that involve focused, detail-oriented work may be a better fit.
Ultimately, the best job for an autistic person will depend on their individual skills, interests, and needs, as well as the accommodations and support available in the workplace. It's important for employers to create inclusive and supportive work environments that allow all employees to thrive, including those with autism.
