Supportive Employment and Customized Employment
Supported Employment is competitive integrated employment for individuals with the most significant disabilities for who integrated competitive employment has not traditionally occurred or for whom integrated competitive employment has been interrupted or intermittent as a result of a significant disability; and who, because of the significance of their disability, need intensive support services; and extended support services in order to perform such work.
Discovery is a person-centered process to learn the most about the job seeker and the information developed through a structured methodology, which allows for activities of typical life to be translated into possible tasks the participant can do for pay, the conditions needed for the participant to be successful, and the contribution he or she would bring to an employer.
