LIFESPAN

LIFESPAN empowers teens and adults with disabilities to live, work, and play in their communities. Partnerships with the local library have made that mission a true reality in Macon, Jackson, and Swain Counties. “The library has been an excellent partner to reach those who need a boost to get back into the workforce,” said Alisha Tatum Senior Director of LIFESPAN. “Our Employment Specialists assist with finding employment and training new employees to succeed at work.” Employment Specialists assist with everything from building interviewing skills, developing an effective resume, completing applications, and matching applicants to the right positions. If there are local businesses in need of qualified applicants, contact LIFESPAN’s Program Coordinator Amanda Nicholson today to discuss how she can assist you with filling open positions. Amanda can be reached at 828-201-2743 or anicholson@lifespanservices.org.
