Careers

Michelle Boxell Posted by: Michelle Boxell 4 years ago

Each year, October is recognized as National Disability Employment Awareness Month, raising awareness of disability employment issues and needs, and recognizing the contributions of workers with disabilities and their employers.


Scott is a valued employee at Lassus Handy Dandy in North Webster.

Individuals receiving employment services through Cardinal’s Career Links program are a vital part of the workforce and make meaningful contributions on the job every day. People like Scott (pictured) who works at Lassus Handy Dandy, cleaning, stocking and getting to know the regular customers.

I tried a couple different places before coming to work at Lassus. But it’s like each new place is a jigsaw puzzle and you just have to find the right fit. Here, it was the right fit, right from the beginning. ~ Scott
