The program is based on three pillars that equip young persons with disabilities with leadership skills, support new and existing Young Africa Works programs on becoming more disability inclusive, and directly provide skills training to the most marginal of this youth. The We Can Work Academy equips young people with disabilities with core life skills training and a choice of employability, technical, entrepreneurship and leadership training. Under Pillar 1, the We Can Work program supports young women and men with disabilities to become role model economic actors and drive system change towards a more inclusive society. The program begins with Core Life Skills training, aimed at helping participants approach their job and career search from a point of self-acceptance and understanding. This training covers critical skills in communication, self-advocacy, and other essential life skills. Participants are then exposed to different opportunities in Entrepreneurship, Waged Employment, or Technical Skills Tracks, allowing them to choose based on their interests and ambitions. The We Can Work program aims to enhance the employability of youth with disabilities by providing comprehensive training, including modules on resume and cover letter development, as well as interview skills. The training will be conducted in Nairobi and Makueni. The Inclusive Employment Officer and the Employability Consultant will collaborate to deliver this training. The inclusion of an Employability Consultant is crucial as they bring specialized expertise in employability training, career coaching, and human resources. This expertise ensures that participants receive high-quality, tailored guidance that directly addresses their individual needs and enhances their prospects in the job market. The consultants role is pivotal in providing personalized feedback, conducting mock interviews, and delivering practical training, all of which are essential for achieving the programs objectives effectively.
