California APSE is proud to be a voice of the Employment First movement. It’s an honor and responsibility that we take very seriously. Our national office, state chapters and board membership have achieved remarkable accomplishments. Determined to keep the momentum moving forward, the California APSE board of directors considered our complex world and sought to answer: What is the right role for California APSE in building the world we want to see?

With a focus on shared values and confirming California APSE’s commitment to the view that everyone can and should work, the board of directors examined the many ways that California APSE can support policymakers, funders, businesses, families, service providers and people with disabilities in advancing Employment First, the core of our common bond.

Our Vision, Mission, and Values are a clear reflection of California APSE.

  • Vision

All people with disabilities have competitive employment in an inclusive workforce.

  • Mission

    To advance employment equity for people with disabilities.

  • Values

    We believe that everyone can and should work, and have the dignity of determining their career path.
