Mission Mountain Enterprises, Inc. is
currently under contract with the Department of
Vocational Rehabilitation to provide job training to
people who qualify for the services. People who
participate in the Vocational Rehabilitation Program are
required to provide their own transportation to and from
the work site.
The goal of Vocational Rehabilitation is to place people
in a job they can do independently. Our people will
provide assistance in filling out applications,
preparing you for job interviews, and explaining the
benefits to this program to potential employers. The
Vocational Rehabilitation Program provides the following
types of employment services:
- Job Development - Our Employment
Development Specialists will discuss with you what
types of jobs you would be interested in. Once the
type of job and employer is identified, the
Employment Development Specialist will contact the
employers. Our staff is in contact with the local
Job Service to see what types of jobs are available
in the community, and what type may become available
in the future. They will develop an on-the-job
evaluation if you are interested in or are able to
do a specific job.
- On-the-Job Evaluation - The Employment
Specialist will work with you and the employer to
develop a work site where you can get the
opportunity to actually work for an employer to see
if you like the job and are able to succeed at it.
You would be given a set amount of hours to work at
this business and would be paid for doing the job.
- Transitional Employment Service - The
Employment Development Specialist would work with
you to review and teach job-seeking skills, such as
preparing a resume, doing practice interviews and
organizing a job search. They would also assist you
with other aspects of the job search, such as having
good grooming and hygiene, problem solving and
providing transportation when no other source is
available. They will also work with other
professionals and coordinate services on your behalf
when it could effect keeping your job.
