The Arc of Greater Boone County, led by Employment Consultant Amanda Davids, Job Club was created to bridge the gap between Mainstreet Enterprises and community employment. Mainstreet Enterprises is a workforce development program in which tasks and jobs obtained from local businesses are performed at the work center or on-site, and provide workers the opportunity to obtain work-skill training and earn a wage. Many participants in this program hope to pursue community employment in the future through the Arc’s Job Connection Program, which helps local companies match job openings with qualified people who have disabilities.
