The Owl Employment program is a comprehensive Supported Employment Program that supports individuals with developmental disabilities and autism to find and maintain employment in their community. The services and supports are identified with the individual through an Individual Support Plan that is based on the needs and preferences of the individual.
The Job Coach provides individualized employment support with job search, resume/cover letter development, interview preparation and pre-employment workshops.
Employment Supports focus on matching the right employee with the right employer for a mutually beneficial employment relationship. Our job coaches provide training on the job once employment is secured. The job coach remains available to the individual and the employer to ensure employment success in their workplace.
Referrals to the program are received from Developmental Service Ontario-Eastern Region for funded vacancies. Individuals and families may also purchase service using Passport or private funds depending on availability.
