Yes She Can

Yes She Can Inc. is dedicated to developing transferable job skills and workplace social skills’ through authentic work experience for teen girls in transition from high school to adulthood and for young women with autism spectrum disorders to enable them to gain and sustain employment and build careers in the competitive job market. Through our retail boutique, Girl AGain, we teach women various business skills such as retail operations, marketing, inventory management, customer service, and sales. We teach social skills, collaboration, advocacy, and managing frustrations. Our goal is to teach skills to enable employees to move to other jobs in retail, with or without supports. We are creating a model of a specialty retail business that can be replicated for other locations, by other individuals or organizations. Through customer interactions we create awareness of the need for employment opportunities and inclusion in the workforce for people with autism.
