Family Employment Awareness Training (FEAT) is open to agency staff, individuals seeking employment, and their parents and families.

Anyone participating in FEAT will:

• Understand Employment First and why it’s important to have high expectations for individuals with disabilities in employment.

• Know the specific kinds of customized employment and how they can help individuals with disabilities find and maintain employment in the community.

• Learn how to maintain benefits while employed and working more hours.

• Discover resources that will support them in their specific role.

SE+ participants are more likely to succeed when they have their family’s support throughout the process.
