Worker Services
Overview
For people who have significant disabilities who want to work, we can arrange and pay for long-term job supports in collaboration with a statewide network of nationally accredited community rehabilitation programs.
These services are offered through our basic extended employment program – often referred to as EE-Basic – and you’re most likely to benefit from these services if you already have work skills and experience and are highly motivated to achieve success in your job.
Long-term job supports – also referred to as ongoing supports or extended services – typically provide assistance in training or retraining job tasks, dealing with schedule changes, adjusting to new supervisors, advancement to new job tasks or positions, and managing changes in non-work environments or life activities that affect work performance.
Services fall within three categories: Supported Employment, Community Employment and Center-based Employment.
