Welcome to Live.WORK.Achieve, a monthly e-newsletter targeting anyone interested in and supportive of employment for youth and young adults with intellectual/developmental disabilities. Live.WORK.Achieve is offered through the Institute for Disability Studies in collaboration with the Mississippi Council on Developmental Disabilities and Disability Rights Mississippi and includes resources and information on employment and career development.
MSPE Employment First Awareness Session – July 16, Long Beach
Employment First is a philosophy that having employment in the community should be the expected goal for working-age adults with developmental disabilities. This goal should be the first priority of agencies providing employment services for adults with developmental disabilities. The Mississippi Partnerships for Employment (MSPE) for Young Adults with Developmental Disabilities project is holding awareness sessions across the state during July to review MSPE activities and provide information about Employment First.
An awareness session will be held July 16, in Long Beach at the Technology Learning Center on The University of Southern Mississippi Gulf Park campus at 730 East Beach Boulevard from 5:30-6:30 p.m.
For more information about the Long Beach awareness session and Employment First, email Dr. Jerry R. Alliston at jerry.alliston@usm.edu.
