Supported Employment Services

Northwest Center has a talented team of employment consultants who support individuals through the entire employment process. Our consultants are trained to work with individuals of all abilities. As the DVR process concludes, client assistance may not. Northwest Center offers long-term assistance for those in need of such supports. A person may require occasional, intermittent support, or may need assistance throughout their shift – we tailor the support to meet each person’s needs. Our job is to help each individual we serve be successful in theirs.
