Did you know that 85% of adults with autism are unemployed?
For me, the unemployment crisis among adults with autism is deeply personal. My son, Eli, is 19 years old and severely autistic. In two years, he will no longer be in public school. All the things that give his life structure and opportunity will disappear. In the past, there have been no jobs available for adults like Eli.
The need to provide opportunities for people with autism was the inspiration behind our job training program. By making work available at our office, these kids get a chance to learn not only hard skills, but the soft skills that are so often a barrier to employment.
I am so proud of the work we are doing in this area. We have built Project Genius as a destination for smart, beautiful puzzles. That has always been our “why.” And while our standards for great product will never change, I find my “why” shifting equally towards creating jobs for adults with autism.
To my staff: I am so grateful you embrace this mission. You are amazing at not only making our friends with autism feel welcome, but finding the daily humor as we learn on the go.
To our customers: Every order you place helps me grow this program. Thank you for helping us make adults with autism productive and accepted members of the workforce.
