September, 2024:
The San Diego Workforce Partnership and Beacons have joined forces for a third year to enable Beacons to hire and train employees from the neurodiverse community to help with tasks in administration, communications, site management and more!
Beacons was awarded a generous grant to develop options such as a communication/creative department, onsite coffee shop and other opportunities to help trainees build skills for community jobs!
