Danny connected with SkillSource through the Pre-Employment Transition Services (Pre-ETS) in Moses Lake, ready to explore work for the first time. With support from the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation (DVR) and SkillSource, he completed two paid work experiences with Central Machinery Sales that helped build real-world skills. The experience led to a permanent job with CMS, and Danny stepped into it with confidence. Opportunities like this are possible through strong partnerships and a shared commitment to meeting people where they are. SkillSource is an equal opportunity program, and we believe in creating pathways that reflect the strengths and potential of every individual. Workforce development works best when everyone’s included.
