The EmployAbility program is designed to empower individuals facing multiple barriers or disabilities by providing them with the support they need to succeed in the workforce. Through personalized employment plans, participants receive tailored training and resources to help them maximize their work performance in a structured and encouraging environment. This approach ensures that each individual gains not only the skills necessary for employment but also the confidence to thrive in a workplace setting. By addressing both personal and professional development, the program fosters long-term success and self-sufficiency.
This initiative fills a critical service gap in the Houston community, particularly for students “aging out” of support systems and adults who require a more structured and accommodating work environment. Without programs like this, many individuals would struggle to find meaningful employment opportunities that align with their unique needs. By offering job training, hands-on experience, and continuous support, Goodwill Houston is creating pathways to independence and stability for those who need it most.
