  • Workshop – The Employment Journey: Supporting Your Neurodivergent Teen or Young Adult

    Sometimes it can be difficult to know how much to support your children into work. You might get some push back from them, but if you can demonstrate that you are helping them to become more independent by having some money coming in for the things they would like to buy, or so that they can one-day live independently, they might be more receptive. This session will give you tips to help you as a parent to support your child in identifying their strengths, help them understand how to self-advocate for their needs and what kind of jobs they can start applying for straight away.

  • Tech tools for job success

    Join us for this workshop to learn about technology that can help teens and adults with disabilities build the skills they need to get and keep a job. Participants will see demos of apps and devices that can support them through managing time, staying organized, and getting tasks done — like alarms, calendars, to-do lists, reminders, and task directions. They'll also explore how executive function tools like these can help them gain more confidence and succeed at work.

    If an ASL interpreter is required, please notify workshops@pacer.org at least 48 hours prior to the workshop. We will do our best to accommodate your request.
