Welcome to the Project SCOUT Website!
Project SCOUT (Securing Career Opportunities at The University of Toledo) is a customized employment program involving partnerships with community agencies representing individuals with disabilities. Our goal is to increases opportunities for people with disabilities at The University of Toledo and we are committed to the creation of employment positions that meet human resource needs and educate employers on the potential of this underutilized workforce. Project SCOUT offers individuals with disabilities the chance to change their lives and enhance their independence through self sufficiency and challenging work environments.
The University of Toledo is dedicated to celebrating human diversity, respect for individuals, and freedom of expression. Project SCOUT is proud to support the mission of The University of Toledo through efforts toward diversity and improving the human condition in our society.
