Who We Are And What We Do

The
North Carolina
Association For Persons in
Supported Employment (NCAPSE) is committed to promoting employment opportunities
for persons with disabilities.
Supported employment enables
people with substantial developmental disabilities to enter real jobs earning
competitive wages with training support provided by a supported employment job
coach. Through Supported employment people with substantial disabilities can
enter the work force without lengthy pre-training experience in sheltered work
or day programs.
