Not to detract from them underpaying disabled people but I believe the picture is more complex than that. I used work with one Goodwill Industries to train their employees on computer repair. Most of these employees were staying in the job for 3-6 months and then moving on to more lucrative jobs. They were receiving on the job training and in some cases, job placement by Goodwill.

I concur, this is my experience too and the reason I am a big supporter of Goodwill.
I did not think the lowest hourly wage at my local organization anywhere were as low as cited in these comments but I don't know the specifics.
