Allan Succeeds at Food 4 Less with Support from AbilityFirst


Allan is hard-working and always has a positive attitude...whether it’s on the job, or meeting with his supervisor, or job coach. Allan is punctual, courteous, and always respectful of others.

He started with the Employment Facilitation Training Services (EFTS) program at AbilityFirst in June 2018 and then transitioned to Supported Employment where he was hired to work for Food 4 Less.

When Allan first started, he had a hard time asking others for help. He struggled with some of the physical labor at Food 4 Less, like stocking items on high shelves, or assisting a customer if an item fell off the shelf.

Allan’s job coach Lucy helped Allan by showing him proper safety procedures and encouraging him to ask for help whenever he needs it.
