Job Placement

 

The job placement program works to develop jobs for the adults with developmental disabilities, then works to place the consumers in a position outside of the Center. The job placement program consists of two employment specialists, and two part-time job coaches.

The employment specialists place the consumer in their positions out in the community. The job training coaches provide job training on the job, look for jobs, log all time, make case progress notes and keep an eye out for possible new opportunities. The job coach assists with planning transportation to and from the job site. During this process, the job coach also assists the consumer with learning how to utilize the appropriate public transportation system.

Funding is provided through Office of Rehabilitation, which is a fee for service plan.
