Before Goodwill
Before Jayson joined Goodwill, finding the right job was hard. He found Goodwill’s Extended Employment Services program through the Idaho Department of Vocational Rehabilitation (IDVR). This became a turning point for him.
Goodwill’s Help
With Goodwill’s help, Jayson found a job at the Coeur d’Alene Goodwill. He became an important part of the production team. He helped the store’s success and gained new experience.
Overcoming Changes
When the Coeur d’Alene store closed for a remodel, Jayson didn’t let this obstacle stop him. He temporarily moved to the Post Falls Goodwill. This helped him keep a steady income while the other store was closed.
