We help students with disabilities prepare for life after high school and the transition to employment, postsecondary education, and participation in our community. Through our Transition to Work and Pre-Employment Transition programs, students learn a variety of technical and soft skills, explore jobs with community employers, and gain paid work experience.

VersAbility Resources’ Transition to Work program ensures students with disabilities successfully move from the special education classroom to paid employment. VersAbility staff teach students a variety of technical and soft skills such as following instructions, working well with others, and the importance of proper attire, a strong work ethic, attendance, and productivity. Students work and earn minimum wages on-site at VersAbility Resources. For more information, contact Vickie Greatwood, Director of Supported Employment at(757) 896-8444 or vgreatwood@versability.org.
VersAbility Resources has a long tradition of providing employment and transition services for people with disabilities in our local and extended community. Our Pre-ETS Discovery Academy takes place over the summer and focuses on work-based learning experiences, work-readiness training, transportation training, and paid internships. Students must be referred to this program by the Department of Aging and Rehabilitation Services (DARS).
