Ability Builders helps individuals develop the skills, confidence, and independence needed to succeed in employment and daily life. We partner with Arizona Vocational Rehabilitation to provide personalized, strengths‑based services that support long‑term success.
We provide individualized, strengths‑based instruction to help clients build workplace skills, develop independence, and achieve meaningful employment outcomes through Arizona’s Vocational Rehabilitation program.
We help clients prepare for, obtain, and maintain meaningful employment. Instruction may include job search skills, applications, interviewing, workplace communication, time management, and on‑the‑job support. Our goal is to build confidence and independence through real‑world employment experiences.
We support clients through every stage of the employment process, from exploring career interests to maintaining long‑term success on the job. Our team collaborates with employers, families, and VR counselors to ensure consistent communication and support.
WAT focuses on strengthening the workplace behaviors and soft skills needed for long‑term success. Clients receive individualized instruction in communication, teamwork, problem‑solving, attendance, reliability, and task completion. Training is hands‑on and tailored to each client’s employment goals.
Training occurs in real community settings whenever possible, allowing clients to practice skills in environments that mirror actual workplaces. This approach builds confidence, reduces anxiety, and prepares clients for real employment expectations.
RIS builds the practical skills clients need for independence at home, in the community, and at work. Instruction may include transportation training, community navigation, organization, communication, time management, and other skills tied to employment readiness and daily living.
Instruction is tailored to each client’s goals and delivered in the settings where skills are needed most — at home, in the community, or on the job. Our focus is on building independence, safety, and confidence through hands‑on learning.
At Ability Builders, we provide individualized, community‑based support to help clients build confidence, develop real‑world skills, and move toward greater independence. We meet clients directly in their community — at home, at work, or in familiar public spaces — to ensure learning happens where it matters most. Our services support employment readiness, workplace success, daily living skills, and personal growth. With our guidance and encouragement, clients gain the clarity, structure, and confidence they need to achieve meaningful goals.

"We can’t begin to thank Elise and Chris enough for the life‑transforming employment services they offered our adult son. Their comprehensive vocational coaching included assistance with the job application process, physical on‑the‑job training support, and acting as an invaluable bridge of communication between the employer and our son. They provided encouragement, pragmatic advice, and direction, and never gave up — even when he became discouraged. Because of their support, our son has found gainful employment where he feels valued and productive. We are so grateful and would highly recommend Chris and Elise for any disability service needs." — L.S., Parent
