Trainings

Personal Assistant Orientation

LCCIL trains Personal Assistants (PA) to work for individuals with a disability that need in-home assistance. Once trained, PAs are placed on our referral list. The consumer is the employer; we are the trainers.

If you are interested in becoming a PA, please participate in one of our trainings to be placed on our referral list; we can offer the training both online and in our offices. Please contact us at info@lccil.org.

The below trainings are facilitated in person at LCCIL and can also be done through Zoom; registration is required prior to the training.
