Our Services

 

Employment

We support members to pursue their employment and educational goals. With the goal of acquiring long-term employment, we focus on helping members regain confidence and strengthen employment-related skills, with the added benefit of greater financial independence. We meet members where they are at by providing  support in three different levels of employment: Transitional Employment (TE), Supported Employment (SE) and Independent Employment (IE).

Transitional Employment (TE)

Transitional Employment offers members the opportunity to enter, or re-enter employment with support from a placement manager. Placements are entry-level, part-time, and last between 6-9 months to help the member get comfortable in the work environment. A Clubhouse staff person fills in if a member is unable to work on a given day ensuring the job is covered.

Supported Employment (SE)

Supported Employment is perfect for members who are ready for more permanent employment. The Clubhouse develops and maintains a relationship with the employer while the members works independently in their position. Positions are long-term may be part-time or full-time.

Independent Employment (IE)

Some Clubhouse members obtain independent employment on their own or with the assistance of job coaches.
