PROVIDING VITAL SERVICES FOR PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES…


“A client with a Traumatic Brain Injury, with the assistance of his ILCSC Case Manager, obtained a position as an Electronic Associate…just a few years after experiencing his accident. He was very excited about working again and interacting with the public as a professional. This opportunity helped him assess his capabilities, and to put into perspective his goals and support in determining suitable employment in the future.“
