                                               Jamail Blair is the Service Specialist at Easterseals Raritan Valley
                                               Work Center in New Brunswick, New Jersey. Jamail supports the
                                               on-site program participants as they work in the packing, sorting,
                                               accounting, and document imaging departments. The participants
                                               are given the opportunity to learn and retain vital work skills while
                                               they earn a paycheck at the work center. The goal is to provide
                                               the participants with a variety of tasks and to show them they can
                                               master any skill.

                                               are thriving. Jackie said, “There’s not many negatives to the job
                                               other than the fact that it’s time consuming.” Mike admitted that,
                                               “Sometimes I need to ask questions, but ever since I was trained,
                                               I’m able to go to work without any help.” While Cindy exclaimed,
