Jobs/ Jobsites are typically looked at in three ways:

Supported Employment - competitive work in integrated work settings for individuals

with the most severe disabilities for whom competitive employment has not traditionally occurred or for whom competitive employment has been interrupted or intermittent as a result of a severe disability. Also, who, because of the nature and severity of their disability, need intensive supported employment services or extended services in order to perform such work. This also included transitional employment for persons who are individuals with the most severe disabilities due to mental illness.

Key Words- Competitive Work- real jobs, Integrated- in the community, Supported- trainers/coaches

Sheltered Workshop - an organization that provides employment opportunities for

people with disabilities and/or those from disadvantaged backgrounds, such as ethnic minority groups, the long-term unemployed, and those returning to the workforce after a period of rehabilitation. The word 'sheltered' refers to a protective environment where disadvantaged people can undertake paid meaningful employment in a supportive environment.

Key Words- Organization- Usually training facility or non profit, Protective Environment- Private

Building or Shop,

Employment Opportunities- Jobs are brought in to the site

Independently Employed/ Competitive Employment- Applying for and obtaining a

general job within the community with little or no accommodations or additional supports.

In general the most successful job placements for students with moderate to severe needs is with a friend or family member who can act as an employer, job coach, and advocate. If you have access to such a placement please let you classroom teacher know as they can tailor instruction to help your learner be successful in this placement.
