WorkAbility Information
Initiated by the California Department of Education (CDE) in 1981, the WorkAbility 1 (WA1) program was designed to provide work experience for youths with disabilities, from 16 to 22 years. In collaboration with the Department of Rehabilitation (DOR), the state issues grants to districts to provide paid employment opportunities for students with disabilities. These grants are issued under the WorkAbility and We Can Work programs. In PUSD, students with IEPs who are 16 years and older can participate in this paid employment opportunity.
