WorkSource Enterprises

The mission of WorkSource Enterprises is to secure employment and support services that enable individuals with vocational disabilities to achieve economic self-sufficiency, independence and full participation in the community.

Community Job Placement Services

For the year ended June 30, 2021, WorkSource assisted 160 individuals with disabilities seeking to obtain and to maintain employment in the community.    Ninety (90) different employers hired WorkSource clients, including those transitioning from welfare‐to‐work. School‐to‐work programs include a collaboration with Charlottesville City Schools through the Student Employment Assistance Program at Charlottesville High School.  Work incentive advice is available to those receiving benefits from the Social Security Administration.   

Day Support Services

Educational and recreational services are provided for those with severe disabilities. Community integration is a major focus of this program and frequent field trips are sponsored. There are approximately 40 participants in this program and each participant has individualized goals that are focused on developing various skills.

Housekeeping and Custodial Services

WorkSource clients provide housekeeping and custodial services to the Federal Executive Institute through the AbilityOne program and a contract with the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. WorkSource is governed by a Board of Directors of eight individuals and operates on an annual budget of $1.7 million with a staff of 20. Typical of many nonprofit organizations, personnel costs represent approximately 83% of the budget.
