This Gala will highlight youth and their growth using Disability Advocates of Kent County's programs and services. With that, our theme for our Gala is "Growing into your Potential."
Disability Advocates of Kent County works with youth ages 14 and over to pursue their employment goals. Many young people with disabilities struggle to find their first job or find a meaningful long-term career. Our team works with these individuals to help them determine their professional and independent living goals and then we work together to achieve them. Some of the services that are provided include goal setting, job application review, resume & cover letter review, network support, mock interviews, identifying skills, workplace accommodation, communication skills, and independent living. Disability Advocates of Kent County offers workgroups and one-on-one peer mentoring.
