I think they should have disclosed at the get-go that they would possibly exclude someone, based on their impression that the person might not be a good risk.

They explained the criteria for getting into the program. They explained the types of infraction of rules that could get a person thrown out. They never explained that they also had the discretion to just say, "No, we don't want you. That is just our gut feeling."

I am not sure that they do legally have quite that amount of freedom in how they spend money from the government. That would allow them to discriminate against anyone at all, for any reason at all.

This was probably a good lesson in life for me to learn. Their profession of wanting to help me was not sincere. They are recruiting clients to keep funds flowing to their organization. I think I was very naiive. It's awful to still be as dumb as I am this late in life.

The organization that did this to me is Goodwill Industries. I've been reading up on them. (There is a lot of unflattering stuff about them on the Internet.) Apparently, they do have an agenda that is not totally about doing good helping people with disabilities. That's probably to be expected of any human enterprise.
