Services For Employers
Helping You Enhance Your Workforce
Cardinal Services is dedicated to creating employment solutions that meet the needs of area businesses while giving people with disabilities opportunities to learn and grow.
Our employment services team will work with your company to understand your staffing needs and create a customized program to tap into an often-overlooked pool of job seekers. Possibilities include:
-
Individual placements
We can pre-screen individuals to identify strong candidates for your open positions. Upon placement, we also can assist with training and provide support as needed.
-
Pre-employment training or volunteer opportunities for high school students
We collaborate with several area schools to help students with disabilities explore employment options and incorporate work experiences at area businesses into the curriculum.
-
Supported work groups
In this model, a small group of individuals works at an area business with support provided by a Cardinal Services staff member. Many individuals transition to successful independent employment after finding a good fit with an employer through a supported work group.
