Five core services

Everything a consumer needs to succeed

01

Discover what's possible

Career Exploration & Assessment

The foundation of every career journey is self-knowledge. We guide individuals through a structured exploration process to identify their interests, natural strengths, and vocational goals. Using person-centered assessments and real-world discovery activities, we help each consumer build a clear picture of where they want to go — and what it will take to get there.

  • Interest and aptitude inventories
  • Community-based job exploration
  • Vocational goal setting
  • Individualized career planning
02

Build the skills employers value

Job Readiness Evaluation

Before entering the workforce, individuals need a clear understanding of their workplace readiness. We evaluate and coach on the skills that matter most to employers: arriving on time, meeting deadlines, working independently and with others, dressing for success, and communicating professionally. We then develop targeted support plans to close any gaps and build lasting confidence.

  • Punctuality and time management coaching
  • Professional appearance and workplace behavior
  • Independent and collaborative work habits
  • Personalized readiness support plan
03

Present your best self

Resume Development & Interview Skills

A strong resume and confident interview presence open doors. We work one-on-one with each consumer to craft a resume that highlights their real skills and experience, tailored to specific job targets. We then prepare them for interviews through practice sessions, coaching, and feedback — so they walk in ready.

  • Personalized resume writing and editing
  • Job-specific application support
  • Mock interview practice sessions
  • Ongoing interview coaching and feedback
04

Real work. Real experience.

Paid Internship Coordination

Paid internships are one of the most powerful pathways to long-term employment. We coordinate workplace placements with local employers, provide on-site job coaching, and support both the consumer and the employer throughout the internship. Our goal is a successful experience that builds toward permanent employment.

  • Employer outreach and placement coordination
  • On-site job coaching and support
  • Employer education and partnership
  • Transition planning toward permanent hire
05

Support that doesn't stop at placement

Employment Follow-on Planning

Getting a job is just the beginning. We develop clear, achievable pathways to long-term employment success and provide ongoing follow-on support after placement to ensure individuals thrive. We stay connected with consumers, employers, and service coordinators to address challenges early and celebrate every milestone.

  • Long-term employment pathway planning
  • Post-placement check-ins and coaching
  • Employer relationship maintenance
  • Coordination with NLACRC service coordinators
