Our Community Integration Services Program assists individuals with job placement and job coaching services at host employers throughout an individual’s local community.
Community Integration Services enables individuals to work within their communities and encourages work, social interaction and independence. Many services are offered to both an employee and their employer. Some of these services include vocational evaluation, on-the-job training, job placement, job counseling, and follow up support.
