Watson, Marge
The monograph describes "Boatworks," a subsidiary of Stepping Stones Growth Center in Oakland, California, which trains developmentally disabled adults to clean and maintain pleasure boats, and "Cleansweep," a janitorial and grounds maintenance training program for the same population. A brief history of the programs is followed by client profiles and information on client productivity and business procedures. Training outlines specify steps for teaching clients skills involved in both programs. Funding information is followed by a sample budget and a discussion of job opportunities, placement, and disincentives for employers. Extensive appended information includes sample forms and skills assessments along with a worker handbook. (CL)
