More Than The Braun Home
Individuals Working in the Community
Community Employment plays a crucial role in providing a strong foundation for individuals with developmental disabilities. This nurturing environment offers support, training, and opportunities for personal growth and skill development. Many success stories have emerged from this program, as individuals who once started here have gone on to secure and maintain jobs outside of the Braun Home within the community. We have immense pride in the achievements of these individuals, celebrating their ability to find, apply, and thrive in mainstream work settings, promoting inclusivity, and empowering them to lead fulfilling lives.
