Supported Employment Services

This is the term for job placement, training and ongoing follow along services. The Employment Specialist (Job Coach) searches for the appropriate job for a person with a severe disability. Services generally include bus training, completion of a job analysis and a task analysis, securing employment, “hands-on” training by the Employment Specialist in a community business, and ongoing follow along services, generally 5 hours a month to make sure that the person maintains his job. Follow along services involve monitoring the person's home environment and the work environment.
