Basic Requirements
Because we work closely with people who are vulnerable and their care is our primary concern, all of our positions require a background check and drug test. Though experience is appreciated, it is not always required. Adelante provides all of the state-required trainings to our incoming staff members so they can work safely and effectively. Many positions require employees to drive for the agency, and for those positions a good driving record is required. More specifics are listed on the individual job openings.

At Adelante, we are actively working to help people with disabilities succeed in the workplace. Our primary objective is to help you find competitive employment in the community and we offer that service through EmployAbility or Ticket to Work.
Adelante also likes to demonstrate that people with disabilities are great employees, so we actively hire for our organization. Feel free to browse the job openings.
