Share your story
Did a job coach, VR, a benefits counselor, or an employer make a difference for you? Your story can help someone else take the first step.
- Tell us what job you do, how you found it, and what helped.
- Say how you want to be named: your first name, a made-up name, or no name.
- Send a photo only if you want to. We will not use one without your OK.
- A family member or job coach can help you write it. It should be in your own words.
We only publish real stories, from real people, with their written permission. We will send you the final version to approve before it goes live.
