Job Seeker Services
We help job seekers with disabilities and other barriers obtain and maintain employment in a variety of ways. This includes job placement at a competitive-wage business, job search and skills training, job development and job carving, career counseling and resume building, personalized job coaching and assessment services.
Student Services
We don't work with just adults - we have several options for high school students. Services include School to Work, where high school students receive educational credit for completing trial work experiences. Work Based Learning is an option in which students referred by DVR gain real-life work experience. Work Place Readiness students learn important skills to prepare them for interviews and jobs. Job shadows are another way students can learn more about a local business.

We provide customized job training and hands-on learning to make sure our job seekers understand their duties, and we offer ongoing training and continued support to both the employee and employer.
