Supported Employment

Spectrum recognizes that employment is a cornerstone of health and wellbeing for all people. We believe that everyone has endless potential to work and serve their communities. Spectrum is determined to facilitate integrated community employment opportunities that will enhance the existing strengths of the people we serve.


Our Supported Employment program is constructed in a series of phases that are designed to meet the occupational needs of the person receiving services:


Job Prep and Development – establish and create job opportunities that are customized to the individual’s goal for employment. This includes skills like resume construction, interviewing skills, completing applications and job preparedness.


Job Coaching – once employment is obtained, Spectrum’s Job Coach will utilize structured intervention techniques to assist clients in carrying out job tasks to the employer’s specifications. The level of support and type of intervention are individualized to meet the needs of the person receiving services.
