The Sheltered Workshop is designed to provide services and assistance to qualified mentally and physically disabled persons. Students are trained in appropriate vocational work-related activities and basic life skills. Local businesses provide work for the Sheltered Workshop (Step-Up Industries). Students are paid on a piece rate basis. The piece rates are derived from commensurate area wages and industry productivity norms.
The Adult and Community Education Department, in cooperation with ACT Corporation of Flagler/Volusia Counties, sponsors Step-Up Industries Vocational/Sheltered Workshops.
