JobLab is an innovative training suite with classroom space, computers, interview rooms and a quiet work zone housed on the first floor of Spaulding Hospital Cambridge. There is no cost to participate and employers can get access to trained, employment-ready candidates with abilities trained, supported by and connected to community-based organizations. Among the organizations currently involved are CVSHealth, Jewish Vocational Service, MassHire, Massachusetts Rehabilitation Commission, Partners HealthCare and Partners for Youth with Disabilities. The goal is to grow even more partnerships in the coming years.
JobLab Goals Include:
- Employment Training: increase competitive employment outcomes for people with disabilities.
- Job Retention: improve function through ongoing support to maintain employment.
- Business and Government Relationship: educate and build on expertise and resources that each partner brings to the table.
