Testimonials

 

"My job at Bloodworks Northwest gives me purpose and satisfaction. I am doing something good for my community."

Michael, Client

"During her school years, our daughter’s special needs were well managed. After graduation, it was Mainstay to the rescue! Trained job coaches helped her identify her skills, practice them in a supervised internship, and interview with select employers. Once she was placed in her job, they problem-solved with her on site and coached her supervisors in reinforcing effective routines. Today she is a valued and confident employee, celebrating her tenth anniversary on the job."

Ann Lukens, Parent and Mainstay supporter

"Mainstay’s job coaches are all extremely professional, and we highly recommend Mainstay to anyone who is disabled, wants to work, and desires a productive life."
