LIFE with Paws is a small business created and run by Preble County ESC’s Project LIFE interns. The Project LIFE program is designed to be a transition to adulthood learning continuum. The goal is to help young adults with disabilities develop skills for employment, independent living, and involvement in the community. These dog treats are handmade in Eaton with grains donated by Bushrod Brew Works.

Project LIFE is a comprehensive, multi-year transition-to-adulthood program in which individuals (ages 18+) with disabilities can develop, practice and strengthen skills that are high predictors for increased adult independence and successful, integrated community employment.

Project LIFE offers a targeted course of study in combination with participation in experiential life skills education and authentic work-based learning experiences in the local community. Utilizing evidence-based transition education concepts, Project LIFE is a proven program model that supports our student interns on their journey to adulthood and greater independence.

Project LIFE began in 2007 and is now impacting lives nation-wide.
