The New York State Office for People with Developmental Disabilities has shared an article about the employment of dozens of people with developmental disabilities at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center, since its opening in September, 2012, supported by AHRC NYC Job Coaches to make sure the workers understand their jobs and to offer any assistance they may need.
“The careers provided by the Barclays Center since it opened have assisted over 75 New York City residents to become actively employed, productive tax-paying citizens,” said Steve Towler, AHRC NYC’s Vice President of Programs and Business Development. “This helps set them on a path of future success leading toward self-sufficiency and life-changing opportunities.”
