The Folsom Cordova Unified School District

The mission of WorkAbility (WAI) is to engage key partners - students, families, educators, youth serving organizations, workforce development organizations, post-secondary education and training institutions, and business partners - in the planning and implementation of services that will ensure successful transitions for students with disabilities to competitive, integrated employment (CIE), lifelong learning, and a fulfilling adult life. 

Funded and administered by the California Office of Education, the WAI program provides students with disabilities the opportunity to complete their secondary education while gaining marketable job skills to thrive in today's labor market.
