San Antonio, Texas, Aug. 26, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- This fall, Endeavors Unlimited’s Job Supportive Services will join forces with Morgan’s MAC (Multi-Assistance Center) through the Workforce Inclusion Network (WIN) program, expanding employment opportunities from their De Zavala office, for San Antonians with disabilities. For decades, this community has faced many challenges and the organizations have come together to address this stark reality.
In 2023, less than a quarter of the disabled population was employed—nearly three times lower than those without disabilities, according to the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics. Endeavors Unlimited is bringing its expertise in resume-building, career mapping, financial education, and interview training to this powerful new collaboration, ensuring that every MAC member has the tools and support needed to thrive in the workforce.
Additionally, Endeavors Unlimited provides on-the-job supportive services for those with disabilities. Salary and schedule negotiation, work accommodation implementation, and transportation planning can support the comfort and fair treatment of clients throughout their career.
Equipping individuals with these strategies for success, wellness is also considered and implemented through Endeavors Unlimited’s services. The organization understands the importance of emotional stability and confidence in the workplace and offers anger management, anxiety management, and conflict resolution courses to ensure job security, productivity, and social growth for their clients.
As a national non-profit with over 30 years of experience serving adults with disabilities, Endeavors, along with several other organizations that combat barriers to equity for the disabled community, have called San Antonio home. Proud to continue this legacy of equal opportunity, Endeavors Unlimited is excited to further aid in the success of those with disabilities in our community.
For non-MAC members seeking employment assistance, Endeavors Unlimited offers Job Supportive Services at 6391 De Zavala Rd Suite 111, San Antonio, TX 78249. Residents seeking more information on Endeavors Job Supportive Services can reach out to info@endeavors.org. For Morgan’s MAC offerings, contact MACInfo@morgans.org.
