Supported Employment - Defined Our Supported Employment Program provides opportunities for people with disabilities to work outside of the center-based programs and into the community, working for private corporations. As employees of private corporations, our adult service recipients, or clients, are earning competitive wages, paying taxes, and are becoming contributing members of the community. Their success is based upon the ongoing support services provided by the staff, and the cooperation of the employer. This isn't kindness... It's GOOD BUSINESS Association for Retarded Citizen's Supported Employment Program secures paid employment and provides job training and support for adults with developmental disabilities. The program helps individuals with disabilities enhance their economic self-sufficiency, self-esteem and integration into the community. Supported Employment saves time. It reduces turnover and the need for employers to constantly hire and train new employees. We provide people willing to work and maintain steady employment, people who are reliable and punctual. Supported employment provides ongoing training and follow-up to ensure the employee is meeting employers' standards. Supported Employment saves money.
