Community Employment

Helping individuals become employed
For many individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, getting a job is a big goal. Since 1989, we at MSDC have been helping individuals obtain employment in the community.
Placement Consultants work with individuals to identify their strengths, interests, and challenges. They then work to match an individual’s interest with a position at a local business.
Providing a strong support system, the MSDC staff work with individuals until they are comfortable with long-term employment as a goal.
