Community Opportunities

Work Opportunities

There are three levels to actual employment: sheltered, supported and competitive employment. Sheltered employment is provided at the Foundation's facility for people who are working on entry-level employment skills. This form of employment requires continuous professional supervision and quality control. Community based employment sites provide training at an actual community worksite, so individualized professional support is not as intense as with the sheltered workshop. Supported and/or competitive employment is designed on the job training for people who have been hired by an employer who are more independent than at the other levels. They require only periodic site visits.
