SOE Life Skills is an interactive, hands-on experience that equips high school students & adults with developmental disabilities with practical money management skills.
REAL SKILLS FOR REAL LIFE
Our hands-on simulations replace worksheets with real-world practice in shopping, counting money, and professional communication. Tailored to each student’s unique pace and needs, the program gives students practical experience in entrepreneurship by creating and selling their own products and navigating a live marketplace.
