Work Readiness Training

Pre-Employment Transition Services (Pre-ETS)

We provide students with core skills training to prepare them for obtaining and maintaining employment. The training also reinforces positive decision making and effective social skills.

Self-Advocacy

We teach students the importance of knowing and understanding their rights, how to assertively advocate for themselves, and the steps to becoming more independent and self-sufficient.

Career Exploration

We provide students with the resources to gain an awareness of the wide range of career pathway options and labor market realities. Students assess skills and interests, identify and explore occupations of interest, set obtainable career goals and develop effective strategies to achieve those goals.

Classroom Training

Opportunity Now employs lead instructors who provide a variety of in-class teaching methods to keep students engaged and receptive to the information being presented.

Employment Opportunities

In order to move from theory to application our students are exposed to workplace opportunities. This is even more critical for students with disabilities because they face additional barriers to self-sufficiency that traditional students may not.

Our Vision is to engage and empower youth to determine their own futures, encourage their peers, and drive themselves and their communities toward self-awareness and self-sufficiency.s and self-sufficiency.

“We impact communities by removing barriers and creating pathways to success for adults and youth.”
