Recent media stories about employment providers like JobOne have increased dramatically. So much is going on around the country today, both good and bad, that is having a profound impact on us. The work we do continues to change at a rapid pace. Demands from business customers, funders, regulators AND those we serve-seem to be in a constant state of flux. Below are links to articles that illustrate just what I’m talking about.

In the spirit of seeing ‘glass half full,’ I do believe there are opportunities amidst this change. JobOne Careers Supported Employment is one example, but I know many more great ideas for JobOne that can lead to successful employment outcomes for our employees and great quality business services for our customers.
