YOUTH TRANSITION

Youth Transition is a coordinated set of service choices that facilitate ease of movement from school to post-school activities including post-secondary education, vocational training, employment / supported employment, and / or adult services case management.  Youth Transition Services include both School-to-Careers academic year programming and Extended School Year summer programming. We also provide all five Pre-Employment Transition Services (Pre-ETS).

EVALUATION SERVICES

Evaluation Services use vocational counseling, testing tools, work samples, and hands-on real work opportunities to help determine one's vocational interests, strengths, and any necessary job accommodations to make a good job match. Several evaluation program types available.

SUPPORTED EMPLOYMENT 

Supported Employment services use a team approach to help individuals attain and maintain competitive integrated employment.  Staff will assist you with job developing, maintaining employment once you are hired, and monitor your progress throughout your entire program.  Once employed, you will receive intensive one-on-one job coaching.  After you have successfully met the employer’s standards for your position, Abilities Solutions’ staff will begin a fading process.  You will then enter Long-Term Follow Along where a Job Coach/Job Developer will visit and/or call you at your home or job site periodically, but no less than once per month to ensure your continued success.

TRANSITIONAL EMPLOYMENT

Transitional Employment programming is available for extensive training in preparation for competitive integrated employment at your own pace.  You will have a Case Manager/Coach who will help you continue to strive towards your individual employment goals, and as appropriate, refer you to suitable services.
