What We Do

PACE (People Accessing Careers and Education) Services assists people with significant obstacles to employment or community inclusion to achieve life goals through education, resource coordination and vocational support. Most of our students have cognitive, physical, sensory or psychiatric disabilities and we want to see them achieve independence, employment and ongoing education. PACE Services is a non credit program through the Community Colleges of Spokane that provides employment and educational services to individuals with significant barriers to their life goals. Individuals have the opportunity to take classes that will increase their knowledge to successful employment and/or independent living.
