Employment and Volunteer Work

In general, there are three types of employment options available to individuals with Down syndrome: competitive, supported and sheltered. Volunteer work is a great option to gain some additional job training.

In the United States, many typical students go to work when their secondary studies are completed.

Sheltered employment is a softer term for sheltered workshops.
