DESCRIPTION
Job Training Workshop for Special Needs Children Ages 14-22.TRANSCRIPT
Joan's After Care Workshop is an educational workshop for disabled students between the ages of 13 to
21 in the heart of Chicago, located onthe Southside at 8456 South
Halsted. The workshop is designed to prepare this particular age group
for the workforce through social interactions and work skill
development. What separates Joan's workshop from other similar
shops is that we work with companies that will hire disabled
youth for tasks that are suitable for their abilities. The companies get a number of tax benefits and trained employees who are fit and ready to
work. It is mainly an after-school program that our trained and
certified staff use to reinforce what was learned in school; meanwhile,
taking a special interest in each disability to help match able youth
with a job in the work force. 8456 SOUTH HALSTEDCHICAGO, IL. 60620
