Success Stories 

"BOCES helped me find the right career." 

Jesse

Jesse plans on getting a job at a place like Home Depot where you inventory stock before it goes out on the floor.  

All he had to do was work with his VRC at VESID and teacher at Calhoun High School in Long Island and follow the Steps to Success to get a placement at BOCES, a vocational training program.

When Jesse finishes BOCES training, BOCES staff will help Jesse find a job in this field anywhere, even close to his home.
