The Tennessee Employment Pathways Project teaches parents or siblings how to help connect their family member with intellectual disability or autism to paid employment. Families will receive practical information and resources by participating in a “short course” on pursuing employment successfully. Some – but not all – participants will be matched with an informal mentor who can be a guide along the way. Learn more and sign up below!
