  • Pre Vocational skills training provides learning and work experiences, including volunteer work, where the individual can develop general, non-job-task-specific strengths and skills that contribute to employability in paid employment in integrated community settings.

  • Supported Employment activities needed to help a participant obtain and maintain an individual job in competitive or customized employment, or self-employment, in an integrated work setting in the general workforce for which an individual is compensated at or above the minimum wage, but not less than the customary wage and level of benefits paid by the employer for the same or similar work performed by individuals without disabilities.

Companion/ Sitter Services

Companion/Sitter Services focus on social engagement, supervision, and emotional support.

These services are ideal for individuals who benefit from having a caring presence to:

Participate in recreational or leisure activities

Attend appointments or community outings

Engage in conversation and companionship

Maintain safety and well-being in non-medical settings

Companions do not provide hands-on personal care but play a vital role in reducing isolation and enhancing quality of life.
