Since 1974, we have served people with disabilities, barriers to employment, and employers, and acted as a voice of community advocacy. Experience and passion have fueled our leadership in developing programs, services, and resources that increase the economic participation and empowerment of people with disabilities and individuals with barriers to employment. Our services are not about entitlement or compromise, but inclusion and opportunity.

Assist employers with appropriate supports and accommodations in conjunction with S4W staff.
Provide follow-up services after placement, including phone or email contact and on-site visits, to ensure long-term retention.

Administration & Reporting

Ensure up-to-date information is entered into case management software.
Submit monthly participant and employer activity reports within designated timeframes.

Community Involvement

Promote the program and represent the agency by building relationships with government and non-profit agencies, local and ethnic community groups, and other service providers through networking, presentations, conferences, job fairs, and related community and business events

Qualifications:

Degree/Diploma in Social Work, Rehabilitation, Social Sciences, Special Education or sufficient experience in a field related to Rehabilitation, Personnel or Career Development.
