For Partners
Meadowlark Employment Services provides a variety of services to our partners in local, county, regional and state government. They include:
Discovery
The discovery process (typically 30 hours) allows our job coaches to get to know a client in-depth. They identify a client’s strengths, weaknesses and interests, and identify jobs where the client would succeed, culminating in a comprehensive report. We’re happy to provide a redacted discovery profile upon request.
Employment Path Community
Our job coaches work to help our clients become familiar with and prepared for the world of work. By visiting local employers, hosting speakers who describe the skill sets their employees need to succeed, creating resumes and learning job search techniques, we help clients prepare for a successful placement in the community.
Job Development
We put a client’s discovery profile into action by helping them find a job in the community. Our job coaches assist with every step of the process, from resume creation to online job searching to applying to getting clothing for an interview.
Ongoing Job Coaching
After a client gains a job in the community and completes the first 90 days, he or she can choose to have a Meadowlark job coach continue to provide support on an ongoing basis.
“I have partnered with Meadowlark Employment Services for eight years. They have been an outstanding agency to work with every step of the way. Meadowlark’s staff has a wealth of experience and expertise when it comes to providing employment services to adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities.
They demonstrate the kind of integrity and client-centered service that I look for in a partner agency. I feel confident and secure knowing that my client is receiving supports through Meadowlark. My client is thriving at his job, thanks in large part to the dedication their staff have shown.”
