Designed to complement our training and
pre-employment programs as well as provide services to adults with
developmental disabilities who do not attend Clover Valley Centre,
our Supported Employment Services promote and inclusion and
accessibility to the workplace by assisting individuals to attain
and maintain employment within their community. Many of our
participants have completed high school and/or college training
programs and are ready to take on greater challenge through
employment. Our goal is to match each participant’s skill and
interest level to that of a prospective employee to ensure a
productive and beneficial relationship to both. For those
individuals not quite ready for the responsibilities of employment
we match their skills to various volunteer opportunities and work
with them to maximize their skill level in what ever area is of
interest.
Our Supported Employment Service can provide
employers with pre-screened, trained employees. We will work with
employers to match the skills and work preferences of each
candidate to the skills required for the position to ensure a
successful placement.
We will provide a Job Trainer who accompanies
newly hired employees to the work site and monitors production,
quality control and performance. Once work requirements are
established, our staff will maintain contact with employers to
provide additional support as necessary. If an employee’s job
description changes due to promotion or reorganization, our Job
Trainer will also assist with any retraining required.
