As employers struggle to fill job openings, they might look to workers like Amy Espinosa.
Espinosa works on a cleaning crew through the Arc Erie County New York. She was part of a team keeping the Broadway Market looking tidy during the busy Easter season, and is now working at Buffalo City Court.
“I am proud to be the person that makes sure other people’s workspace is clean and sanitized so they can work in a healthy environment and be productive,” she said.
With her job, Espinosa is able to live in her own apartment and enjoy an active personal life.
“I always hope to be a good mentor to new co-workers,” she said.
The ARC Erie County supports people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Douglas DiGesare, the organization’s CEO, said the organization has many capable people like Espinosa with a proven track record at area employers.
