Sometimes finding a job opportunity starts with simply exploring your community!

Recently, EB was participating in a community Mapping Activity when he spotted Papa Murphy’s. Since he enjoys making pizza, he expressed interest in going inside to learn more about working there.

And we're so glad he did!

Not only was the business accepting applications, but the manager took the time to talk with EB about what working there looks like, from opening and preparing for the day to helping customers.

EB got to explore a workplace that matched his interests, ask questions, and learn more about the responsibilities. Best of all? He filled out and submitted an application himself!

This is why Mapping is such an important part of our Job Development services. It's not just about finding businesses that are hiring. It's about getting out into the community, discovering interests, exploring possibilities, and giving individuals an active voice in their employment journey.

We're proud of EB for taking the initiative and following through!

And a big thank-you to the team at Papa Murphy's for taking the time to welcome him and share more about their workplace.

October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM)! 🧡

At TVW, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to find purpose, build confidence, and experience the independence that comes with employment.

Every day, we see the incredible things that happen when individuals with disabilities are given opportunities to share their talents, develop new skills, and contribute to their communities.

This month, we're celebrating the individuals we serve, the dedicated staff who support them, and the incredible employers who recognize the value of an inclusive workforce.

Inclusion isn't just about opening doors. It's about creating workplaces where everyone has the opportunity to succeed.

Together, we're elevating lives through the power of work. 💙

A project worth celebrating! 🎉

Thanks to funding from Prosper Portland , we were able to make several major improvements to our Sustainable Cleaning Systems building:

✨ Install a new elevator
✨ Renovate and update our bathroom to make it ADA accessible
✨ Add decorative steel artwork to our windows, improving building safety while keeping the space welcoming

And even better? The entire project was completed on time AND under budget! 🙌

These improvements have made a tremendous difference for our building and day-to-day operations, and we are so appreciative of Prosper Portland's partnership and investment in our organization.

Projects like this may happen behind the scenes, but their impact is felt every day.

Thank you, Prosper Portland, for helping us create a safer, more accessible and functional space for our team and the people we serve!

More than job searching - we build workplace skills.

Our client IN participated in hands-on training in a real work environment. At Dollar Tree, he practiced organizing merchandise by department, identifying misplaced items, improving attention to detail, and interacting with store staff.

We then visited Panda Express, where he completed a mock interview, introduced himself to the manager, and practiced answering interview questions while expressing his interest in joining the team.

At the end of each employer visit, we leave the client’s résumé and information about our employment program, helping build strong employer partnerships and creating meaningful employment opportunities.

The best part? Thanks to this preparation and employer engagement, the client has already secured a job interview! Every community-based experience builds confidence, strengthens workplace skills, and brings our clients one step closer to competitive, integrated employment. 💼👏🌟

The best time to deal with a facility problem? Before it becomes one.

Routine cleaning does more than keep a building looking good. Consistent care can help protect flooring and surfaces, maintain a professional environment, and prevent small issues from turning into bigger ones.

Through Sustainable Cleaning Systems, we work with organizations to provide dependable facility services that keep their spaces ready for the people who use them every day.

Our latest blog explores why a proactive approach to cleaning pays off over time.

Getting hired is exciting, but it's not the finish line.

A successful job placement starts long before someone's first day and continues well after it. It takes getting to know the job seeker, understanding an employer's needs, finding the right fit, preparing for the role, and providing support as the employee grows.

When employers and job coaches work together, everyone has someone in their corner.

We're sharing a closer look at what goes into creating job placements designed to last.

What do people actually remember about a great workplace?

Usually, it's not a big program or initiative. It's how people treated them.

A supervisor who took the time to explain something. A coworker who made them feel welcome. Clear expectations. Encouragement after learning something new.

Those everyday moments shape workplace culture more than we sometimes realize.

Our latest blog looks at the small things employers and teams can do to create a workplace where people feel respected, valued, and ready to contribute.

No one does this work alone.

Behind every new job, new skill, and milestone is a whole network of people helping make it possible. Job coaches, employers, families, community partners, board members, donors, and, most importantly, the individuals putting in the work every day.

In honor of National Nonprofit Day, we're taking a moment to recognize the people behind TVW's mission and the many ways our community helps open doors to employment and greater independence.

Our latest blog shares more about the people who make this work possible.

As part of ongoing Job Development services, a workplace exploration tour was arranged at MOD Pizza in Cornelius with Brandon, the restaurant manager. The purpose of this activity was to provide the participant with direct exposure to a real work environment, increase vocational awareness, and strengthen engagement in the employment process.

During the tour, Brandon explained the restaurant’s workflow from beginning to end, including food storage and organization, sanitation procedures, kitchen safety, use of commercial equipment, pizza preparation, proper handling of pizzas in ovens exceeding 500°F, packaging procedures, and order preparation for customers. Safety practices and quality standards were emphasized throughout the tour.

The participant remained engaged during the visit, asked several questions about the job duties and pizza preparation process, and demonstrated genuine interest in learning about the position and workplace expectations.

Brandon indicated that he will keep the participant in mind should an appropriate employment opportunity become available in the future.

Following the visit, the participant shared that he really enjoyed the experience and commented that Brandon was “very nice.” Experiences like this play an important role in Job Development by increasing participant motivation, promoting engagement with the employment process, and helping build familiarity and confidence in competitive, integrated work environments.

Could your workplace be someone’s next opportunity? By opening your doors for a workplace tour, job shadow, or conversation, you can help someone explore their interests, build confidence, and take another step toward employment.
