At Access to Independence (a2i), advocacy programs take the form of information, education and referral. They work with consumers to teach independent living skills, assess which further resources will be of assistance, and give consumers the tools they need to move forward as their own advocate. Employment services work with each client to assess employment qualifications and begin the job development process. Clients are given opportunities to assess their employment needs, create and perfect resumes, work on job applications and practice interview skills. Call for information on the a2i location in Vista, CA.
