Napa Valley Support Services

Unemployment rates among disabled people are almost three times higher compared to the rest of our community. Of those with employment, people with disabilities are rarely promoted into better jobs, remaining stagnant for years with limited alternatives. Since 1972, NVSS has stood with disabled employees in their fight to emerge from the shadows and create equity through employment opportunities, and we are determined to keep that momentum going. Our mission is to support quality of life for individuals with disabilities through a person centered approach to self-discovery, community-engagement, employment, and education. NVSS provides employment services and training programs to increase the self-reliance and skills of people with disabilities in the Napa community. We serve over 115 people annually through artistic expression and vocational day programs. Our work program provides employment supports to over 45 individuals annually to identify, place, and maintain meaningful employment in the community.
