Creative solutions to traditional barriers to employment for people with disabilities

Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
Graduating from high school is an important milestone, but if you have autism, it's like going over a cliff. All federally-mandated wraparound supports end for the 50,000 students with autism that graduate each year. As a result, 35% receive no adult services, 91% are un- or underemployed, and 71% do not have the option to live independently. Local stakeholders challenged Make It Work and our community to bridge the gap. Make It Work and it's local partners kickstarted a program to address common skills-needs gaps and streamline the process by which adults with autism find employment and start living as independently as possible. We incorporated proven best-practices and piloted how to "make it work" by creating pathways for jobs in hospitality, automobile, warehousing, technology, and doggie daycare industries. Since Make It Work is based in Charlotte (near the SC border), we had a unique opportunity to test the model in both North and South Carolina. While the need was high in both states, we identified significant disparities among NC and SC's social service systems that presented substantial challenges to launching an initiative across state lines. As a result, we decided to shift the programming of the Adult Spectrum Transitions effort to an SC-based non-profit with access to federal and state funding to meet the demand we uncovered and take our model to scale. The foundational investment in our efforts was catalytic. By narrowing our focus to uptown Charlotte, we are able to capitalize on our existing relationships within our local business community. Goals Achieved During Year One: Engaged and connected with 5 businesses and 2 convening agencies (City of Charlotte and Chamber of Commerce) willing to commit to the project. Business/employer partners are prioritized by size, potential to have open positions, variety of workforce and existing relationships. Supported 15 individuals with autism in job placement and/or resource connectivity. Created and facilitated a Community of Practice built by linking together current and disparate resources. The goal of the CoP is to remove silos and create efficiencies through streamlined and synergistic connections. Ramp up to achieve a three-year 600 aggregate hiring goal. It is anticipated that year one will lag behind as foundations are built, and that year two and three hirings will accelerate. Focus on jobs with salaries of 30K or more; resulting in 33M in wages earned by the end of the project Ongoing Goals: Provide a scalable business-driven alternative to traditional Vocational Rehabilitation Expand the number of partnering businesses and conveners to widen the network of available jobs and resource allocation, building towards community sustainability. Expand the number of hires and people in whom companies have invested. Expand the number of pathways created, depending on the talents and resources represented by new, partnering stakeholders. -Effect real change in the perspective of businesses and their employees about the full inclusion of people with disabilities in the workforce and the community.$194,044$193,897
