PHENND Fellows- JEVS Assistant Training Coordinator
 
 
 
For 80 years, JEVS has worked to increase employability, independence, and quality of life for individuals in the Philadelphia region. For the last 35 years, JEVS has also supported people with disabilities to live and work in the community. At JEVS Human Services, we believe in giving people possibilities—opportunities to be self-sufficient and satisfied. Each year we touch nearly 25,000 lives, focusing on individuals with physical, developmental, and emotional challenges as well as those facing adverse socio-economic conditions including unemployment and underemployment. We make hope happen by helping the people we serve lead self-determined, connected, and hopeful lives that strengthen themselves, their families, and their communities.
