LAWRENCE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Molina Healthcare<\/a> (\u201cMolina\u201d), in collaboration with The MolinaCares Accord<\/a> (\u201cMolinaCares\u201d), awarded a $120,000 grant to the Northeast Independent Living Program<\/a> (NILP) to support the Young Adult Empowerment Support (\u201cYES\u201d) program. The 12-month pilot initiative will help young adults with disabilities in Massachusetts\u2019 Merrimack Valley by providing individualized support focused on community-based employment, transportation independence, and daily living skills.<\/p><\/a><\/a>

\nAccording to NILP, over 50% of working-age individuals in their service area with disabilities are unemployed or underemployed, and many face barriers in transportation and daily living skills, leading to isolation and dependency. The YES program addresses a service gap for young adults with disabilities transitioning out of school-based supports. Services funded by the grant include resume building, interview skills, job placement, navigating public transit and ride sharing, budgeting, cooking, and self- advocacy.<\/p>

\n\u201cThis generous grant from Molina and MolinaCares will enable NILP to expand services for young adults with disabilities, with the goal of achieving meaningful employment, an area our team has identified as a critical gap,\u201d said Matt Pellegrino, CEO of the Northeast Independent Living Program.<\/p>

\n\u201cMolina and The MolinaCares Accord are proud to support NILP\u2019s work that provides a continuum of services for one of our most vulnerable populations,\u201d said Bill Graham, plan president for Molina Healthcare. \u201cThis partnership creates opportunities for young adults with disabilities to live a life with dignity and purpose by providing them the skills they need to thrive.\u201d<\/p>
