Promoting choices of ALL employment opportunities and support services
for people with disabilities in Missouri.
ABOUT MASWM
We’re in the business of enhancing Missouri’s extended employment sheltered workshops and programs for the people that we serve and the business services we provide.
ABOUT EXTENDED EMPLOYMENT
Extended Employment Workshops (formerly known as Sheltered Workshops) were founded by parents and others concerned with safe and sustainable opportunities for adult children with disabilities. Their drive to maximize real-world choice and involvement continues today.
Many of Missouri’s workshops operate robust community programs, both for employment opportunities and to increase involvement. Work skills, socializing and other learning are important, along with a sense of contributing
to the community.
