Thank YOU in advance for your time and support.
For over 47 years, Tommy Nobis Center has been a pioneer service provider and advocate for fair education and employment opportunities for people with disabilities. Now more than ever, we recognize that access to work readiness instruction for youth with disabilities is vital to their professional success.
- Through our Early Youth Employment Services (EYES) we served 1,200 students from 54 different schools!
- Our ConNect Events provide connections and resources for youth with disabilities and their families, and last year, 386 participants attended!
- TNC's Summer and School Break Programs served over 200 students!
- The Academy (our Accelerated Vocational Training Program), guarantees that every participant who successfully completes the program will find employment!
