The Arc Minnesota’s Peer-to-Peer Mentor Program aims to help people with disabilities and their support networks as they explore job options.
Through supported exploration, people with disabilities can make informed and self-directed decisions about their future. As Minnesota and employers move away from subminimum wage and into a competitive integrated employment (CIE) model, we can create a Minnesota that honors everyone by advancing the leadership of people with disabilities around employment.
CIE is any job where people with disabilities earn the same pay and opportunities as those without disabilities. Led by The Arc Minnesota, the Peer-to-Peer Mentor Program is a multiagency effort to further the Minnesota Transformation Initiative Technical Assistance Center (MTI) contract with the Department of Human Services.
The Arc’s Peer-to-Peer Mentor Program is looking for mentors. If you or a family member is competitively employed consider becoming a family mentor. By sharing your story you help others learn that competitive employment is possible. To learn more or for staff follow up, please complete this form.
We'll be in touch soon!
