EmployAbility Overview

Did you know that New Jersey is an Employment First state? This means the state is committed to ensuring that competitive employment is the first and preferred post-education activity for everyone, including people with disAbilities. Therefore, all people with disAbilities should be supported to work in local businesses within the community with a starting salary that matches at least the current minimum wage. This goal is becoming a reality as FRA creates new PossAbilities for adults with developmental disAbilities to join the workforce through our various EmployAbility programs or services. 

Supported Employment (SE):

FRA EmployAbility assists individuals with disAbilities in obtaining competitive employment in an integrated setting consistent with the skills, interests, and preferences of the individuals with ongoing support services that include Job Development, Job Coaching, and Long-Term Support.
