Over the next year and a half, these providers will work to expand their capacity to provide competitive, integrated employment opportunities for Kansans with disabilities. They will be paired 1:1 with a Mentor Organization that has undergone a similar transformation, and they will have the opportunity to participate in evidence-based, ACRE-accredited training opportunities through WISE so that their staff can provide state-of-the-art, competitive, integrated employment supports and services.
These pilot project participants serve culturally diverse and cross-disability populations in various parts of our great state. We are excited to see them take the next steps in turning the promise of Kansas Employment First into a reality.
