Community Employment

Integrated Easterseals employment in a community setting with limited support.

Job Placement

Job matching and assistance with basic application and interview skills and use of Easter Seals' extensive network of employers.

Non-Core Rehabilitation Services

Easterseals offers services for the whole person. Although individuals seek out Easterseals Middle Georgia for help with employment problems, significant issues in other life areas often negatively effect employability. Certain non-core services have proven valuable in the pursuit of employment independence.

Transportation Services

Public transportation does not exist in our area of Middle Georgia. Employment means private transportation. While a person is "getting on his or her feet," subsidized transportation is often needed. Rides to work can be subsidized by Easterseals, DOL Rehabilitation Services, Department of Family and Children's Services, or other providers.

Referral Services

Easterseals Middle Georgia Maintains an external network of providers of a great variety of human services. Services needed by Easterseals employees are accessed through this network. From mental health counseling to credit counseling, from housing services to nutrition training, and from medical services to work clothing; Easter Seals helps make the connections that lead to vocational independence.
