Welcome to Pursuit!
Pursuit is a specialized program that works in partnership with Washington’s Department of Vocational Rehabilitation (DVR). Through state funding, Pursuit is able to offer pre-employment services at no cost to individuals or school districts that choose to access it.
Pursuit is passionate to equip people with disabilities for their future! Our program provides educational support and job/college access through self advocacy by discovering strengths, workplace readiness training, and work-based learning opportunities.
Pursuit provides opportunities for individuals to participate and access this FREE service by in person learning on our Edmonds College campus, online courses, and developing partnerships with school districts and IEP case managers to provide on-site workshops in group settings around Washington state.
If you are a person with a documented disability, IEP, or 504 plan, and are between the ages of 14-22, you meet the qualifications. The next step would be to fill out and submit a Pre-ETS consent form (which we can provide). Yep! It’s that easy to access this completely FREE program!
Program requirements:
- Must be 14-22 years old to receive these services.
- Must have (had) a documented disability (IEP, 504, medical diagnosed or signed up for accommodation with SSD (services for students with disabilities)
- Must be an enrolled student in the K-12 system or in a transitional program or an enrolled student at a post-secondary institution.
**students must be able to manage themselves independently in group settings to attend in person classes**
