Job Coach
CurrentI assist people with disabilities who qualify for services in securing, learning, and maintaining employment in the general community. The nature of that assistance varies depending on the specific job and person. The focus of training may be on quality of work, productivity, understanding or following expectations, social appropriateness, personal hygiene and motivation. Negotiation with the employer may be needed to carve out responsibilities beyond the individual’s ability or modifications needed to accommodate the individual. Once the individual is stable in the new position monthly follow along visits are made to catch and resolve any issues that may develops the job is lost.
