Employment Programs Help the Individual and the Organization

One employment program involves a partnership with a local restaurant, Sea Salt that has lasted for more than 8 years. Our cooperation with Sea Salt began in 2010 with 3 transitional positions and has since blossomed into a robust program offering Vail Place members summer employment as a way to reintroduce them to working and provide work experience.
