Welcome to MentorAbility (Updated schedule coming soon) Getting started in the right direction can be challenging. MentorABILITY is an exciting career development initiative for young people with disabilities. Local business partners and employers volunteer as mentors to provide a variety of career guidance, exploration and internship opportunities to give job seekers the insights, experiences and connections they need to get ahead. It's all about encouraging people to realize their dreams, and enabling employers to help grow the talent that their businesses need to succeed in today's competitive world.
(The BLN has partnered with the Laramie County School District #1 and East High School "World of Work" Classes: Classes are designed to provide students training to transition in to the World of Work upon leaving High School. By presenting opportunities of ‘real-world' experience with local business partners and employers, the students are better able to understand and manage the challenges that face them when searching for employment. Each student's employability is maximized through exercises and workshops, designed to be interesting and useful, while encouraging them to stay in school to receive the best education prior to joining the work force. Additional Benefits:
All people are created equally and deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. We all have something worthwhile to contribute to this world. It is our job to discover what that is and how we can make that happen. MentorAbility Program Ground Rules 1. This class should be treated as though it was a job 2. Be polite and respectful of MentorABILITY staff, employer presenters, teachers and fellow students. (Presenters are taking time out of their busy work schedules to be with you!)
3. We will sit at the front of the room and engage in the proceedings. 4. The teachers will stay with their classes and are responsible for the supervision of students.
5. There will be a 5 minute break; no other time can you leave the classroom. 6. You will sign- in for each class.
7. You will fill out an evaluation for each WOW class. 8. Permission slips must be filled out prior to events that take place out of the classroom.
