Launch Project LIFE
In Your Community
Is your school district or organization in need of a program model proven to build skills in students and young adults with developmental disabilities?
Individuals participating in Project LIFE generally have a diagnosis or a learning limitation that presents a barrier to their goal of gaining and maintaining inclusive, competitive employment in their communities.
Project LIFE gives students:
- Increased independence
- Self-determination
- Social and communication skills
- Community integration
- Competitive employment
- Relevant life skills

Experienced Project LIFE personnel provide face-to-face training and ongoing consultative support. Everything you need to implement and sustain the program at your location is available in an online portal that also gives you direct access to other Project LIFE teams nationwide.
Make a life-transforming investment at a minimal cost
The cost to replicate Project LIFE is less than many single curriculum packages today. A one-time fee of $20,000.00 provides programming for up to 24 students per year. This includes access to a Project LIFE consultant, assessments, job training and site development resources, job skill scoring rubrics, and a variety of free web-based resources. We also gather annual job skill growth and program outcome data for you. The annual renewal fee is $1,500.00 (billed July 1 each year).

“I can’t wait to use the job skill performance evaluation scale. I won’t have to guess a rating number
and then feel like I need to justify why that number was given. Just knowing that we are going to
have a systemic approach to transitioning our students into the workforce is a great relief.”

Feedback from a visitor to Butler Tech’s Project LIFE Program
"I felt our group received well-rounded tour of what Project LIFE is all about. I left with the feeling that
this program can be adapted to meet the needs of our specific county. I was specifically looking at
how the program can meet our students with more significant needs and I saw some good examples
of how this program addresses those needs."
