How they approach the work

Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.

  • Customized Employment Model
    methodology: customized_employment
    By co-creating tailored job roles that align employer needs with job seekers' unique skills and strengths, we achieve sustainable employment outcomes for individuals with significant disabilities because it transforms overlooked candidates into solutions for unmet business needs.
  • Integrated Employment Pathways
    methodology: integrated_employment
    By placing individuals in competitive, integrated workplaces rather than segregated settings, we challenge assumptions about capability and promote long-term success because high-status employment environments increase belonging, skill development, and career growth.
  • Person-Centered Planning and Self-Direction
    methodology: person-centered_planning
    By enabling individuals to direct their own service plans and define personal goals through participant-centered planning, we improve community engagement, independence, and well-being because autonomy fosters ownership, dignity, and more effective use of support resources.
