Community Based Employment Services
Community Based Employment Services assist people with disabilities in finding a job in the community. Our Employment Specialists (Job Coaches) work with each client in many ways. This includes learning the client’s strengths and weaknesses, meeting with potential employers to discuss types of jobs available, assisting clients with completing online applications, interview preparation, coaching and training clients on the worksite to ensure that they are working to the best of their ability and completing their job tasks as well as meeting the employers` needs.

Learn About our Work Evaluation!
CBWE (Community Based Work Evaluation) is an assessment used for vocational planning purposes. It is performed one-on-one in the community at an employment site in the most integrated setting possible. It is an assessment used to identify work related skills, behaviors, interests, abilities, strengths, aptitudes, and barriers to employment. It can also identify if any reasonable accommodations would be needed in future employment.
CBWE is valuable for an individual who has never worked or has very limited work experience, those needing to explore and identify career pathways, Out of School Youth ages 24 and under, and those with any type of disability.
