There are seven young adults in the second Project SEARCH class that started in the fall.

The first class at Kaiser Permanente Los Angeles Medical Center had three participants in this innovative program. They graduated in the early summer and all three are continuing on at Kaiser as paid employees.

About Project SEARCH

Project SEARCH is a program for young adults with disabilities to learn job skills through unpaid internships. The interns are in their last year at LAUSD and they will participate in three 10-week internships throughout various Kaiser Permanente Los Angeles Medical Center departments, such as OB/GYN, Ambulatory Services and Volunteer Services.

The goal for Project SEARCH interns is to gain valuable work experience that will lead to paid employment after graduation. LAUSD students interested in finding out more about Project SEARCH should speak with their teacher or their service coordinator at Lanterman.
