Lisa, Mitchell’s Mother:
We’ve been involved with Job Prospects since 2013. I was only 17 when I had Mitchell. He was diagnosed with cerebral palsy at about two and a half.
Once he finished high school it was kind of a little bit difficult knowing what to look at next. And that’s when we came to Job Prospects and it was amazing since then.
Mitchell, Disability Employment Services Participant:
I’m a volunteer at Animal Holding Facility. Love the work I’m doing. I wanna be at work all the time.
Lisa:
It’s made him a completely different person. His confidence has grown so much.
Mitchell:
They helped me to get my confidence back and I have goals that I want to achieve.
Lisa:
I actually always tell people, anyone I meet, that they should come here because it’s the best thing I’ve ever done – for me and for Mitchell.
