Employment
Many members share the goal of finding and succeeding at paid employment. Clubhouse staff and members work together to develop skills that can be applied in the working world.
We offer several levels of support including:
-
Independent Employment: We provide support with job searching, applying for jobs, resume building, interview skills.
-
Supported Employment: We provide support with job searching, applying for jobs, resume building, interview skills, transportation to/from work, communication between Clubhouse member and their employer.
-
Transitional Employment: Clubhouse staff act as job coaches and support members on the job as needed for a real job in the community that lasts 6 - 9 months. This allows members to gain experience, connect with employers to form positive working relationships, and build confidence in the workforce. Following a Transitional Employment experience, members can choose to seek permanent employment or move into another Transitional Employment position if they are not yet ready to work independently.
