Our programs are available free of charge to disabled Westchester and Putnam County residents. We currently offer:
Supported Employment Program
This is our main program in which we utilize a unique one-on-one approach to provide services, based on each individual’s needs. Employment services offered include job preparation support, creative job placement, on-the-job training, and ongoing support services.
We have developed several programs to address specific needs of our clients. These programs are:
High School Transition Program
Through this program, we reach out to high school juniors and seniors to help them make an easier transition into the workforce once they graduate. This early outreach prepares students to meet the challenges of getting a job and developing a career path.
Community Transition Program
Through this program, we provide outreach to individuals in local psychiatric clinics and community mental health programs to increase their access to meaningful jobs. This program enables disabled individuals, who otherwise might remain in clinics or programs indefinitely, to transition through our supported work program and into jobs in the community.
Corporate Outreach Program
This program is designed to help individuals get jobs within large area businesses and corporations, which are traditionally difficult for them to access. We focus on many of the corporate headquarters throughout Westchester and Putnam Counties that may provide employment opportunities in which our clients may be interested.
Workforce Readiness, Placement & Training Program
Our newest program was designed to prepare disabled individuals for the challenging process of getting a job. In a group setting, we provide in-depth classroom instruction to provide the skills necessary to apply for and obtain employment. We focus specifically on writing an effective resume, successfully negotiating the interview process, and getting and keeping the jobs our clients desire.
