What is Pathways to Careers?

Pathways to Careers (P2C) connects Virginians with disabilities to the education, training, and industry-recognized credentials they need to secure good, high-demand jobs. Focusing on career opportunities in high-growth industry sectors, our specialized counselors work directly with jobseekers with disabilities to help them secure marketable credentials, qualify for skilled jobs, and earn a livable wage. The program is managed by DARS through a grant from the U.S. Department of Education, in close partnership with the Virginia Department of Labor and Industry (DOLI).
