Employment Services
People with disabilities offer many positive employee options. Paramount Support Services’ staff will work hard with local employers to focus on helping them fill employment needs while expanding opportunities and empowering individuals. The supported employment component helps find individuals employment by providing the following: evaluation, job search, application and interview assistance, and training. Following a detailed job analysis, the employee is trained to carry out the necessary tasks associated with the job. A job coach will be assigned to support the individual in his/her work environment. Once the employer and employee are comfortable, there will be a shift from job coaching to natural supports, with job coaching available as needed.
