Project SEARCH

Project SEARCH is an international, unique, business-led, one year internship program that takes place entirely at the workplace.

  • Kaiser Permanente Los Angeles Medical Center
  • Kaiser Permanente West Los Angeles Medical Center
  • Children's Hospital Los Angeles

The sole definition of a successful outcome is competitive employment for each Project SEARCH intern. Project SEARCH is a business-led program, which means that students learn relevant, marketable skills while immersed in the business and those businesses are active partners, participating without subsidies.

The program focus is on serving people with a variety of developmental disabilities, who experience total immersion in the workplace. Project SEARCH graduates receive effective follow-along services to retain employment.
