AT THE CENTER FOR INDEPENDENT LIVING IN CENTRAL FLORIDA (CIL), WE BELIEVE THAT DISABILITY SHOULD NEVER STAND IN THE WAY OF ACHIEVING MEANINGFUL, REWARDING EMPLOYMENT. PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES OFTEN FACE SYSTEMIC BARRIERS THAT LEAVE THEM UNEMPLOYED, UNDEREMPLOYED, OR WORKING IN ROLES THAT DON’T REFLECT THEIR TRUE POTENTIAL.

OUR EMPLOYMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM IS HERE TO CHANGE THAT NARRATIVE.

WE TAKE A PERSON-CENTERED, STRENGTHS-BASED APPROACH- HELPING EACH JOB SEEKER UNCOVER WHAT MAKES THEM UNIQUE, BUILD CONFIDENCE, AND DEVELOP PRACTICAL STRATEGIES TO SUCCEED. IT’S ABOUT MORE THAN FINDING A JOB; IT’S ABOUT FINDING THE RIGHT JOB-ONE WHERE INDIVIDUALS CAN CONTRIBUTE, GROW, AND BE VALUED.
