HCE offers a continuum of training and recruitment programs that provide social/workforce skills to persons with disabilities, with opportunities to join our workforce through our business enterprises.
Our business model includes collaborations with other non-profit organizations and federal, state, county and local workforce development systems to identify individuals with disabilities and link them with our employment opportunities. This model is offered throughout the tri-state area.
As HCE hires these individuals, they acquire a range of marketable skills in a work-based learning environment. The acquisition of these skills can result in a promotion to a more higher-skilled position within HCE’s organization or employment in the general labor market that would not have been possible prior to employment with HCE. Additionally, while working in some of these businesses, each individual is able to obtain a recognized post-secondary industry specific credential. This is unique offering and demonstrates a new and effective model of training/employment. In addition to facility-based training, HCE maintains a network of businesses which provide paid and unpaid internships in the field.
