Lifeworks provides a variety of assessment and vocational training services at our Norwood and West Roxbury Training & Fulfillment Centers. Career and work goals are based on the interests, goals, skills and abilities of each individual.

Our full-time Job Development Manager is responsible for working closely with each individual to develop an appropriate job search and placement process. Over the years, Lifeworks has successfully placed 100s of individuals in community-based employment with an exceptional retention rate of over 85%.

Several times a year we feature a 9-week "World of Work" (W.O.W.) Training program.

The W.O.W. program helps participants identify their skills, translate talents and hobbies into jobs and develop self-confidence. These 'soft skills' are necessary for anyone, but especially someone with a developmental disability, to successfully transition from school or a workshop setting to community-based employment.
