Supported Employment is a combination of intensive ongoing supports and services that enable participants for whom competitive employment at or above the minimum wage is unlikely or who may be able to work in a competitive work environment but who, because of their disabilities, need supports to perform in a work setting. In other words, it provides assistance to individuals with significant disabilities to help them succeed in integrated work settings, consistent with their interests, goals, strengths, and informed choice. The goal is to promote independence and enhance their capacity to perform effectively in a job while receiving necessary support.
