MME is under contract with the Department of Vocational Rehabilitation to provide job training to qualified individuals. Vocational Rehabilitation Program participants are required to provide their own transportation to and from the work site.
The goal of our Vocational Rehabilitation Program is to place people in jobs they can perform independently. MME staff members help the disabled individual fill out applications and prepare for job interviews. They also explain the benefits of this program to potential employers.
This program offers three types of employment services – job development, on-the-job evaluation, and transitional employment. MME job specialists work with individuals to figure out what types of jobs they’re interested in, and contact employers. They also contact the local Job Service about available jobs and future job openings.

The person with a disability works for an employer to see if he or she likes the job and can succeed at it. Each individual is given a set amount of hours to work, and is paid for doing the job.
Transitional employment services involve reviewing and teaching job-seeking skills such as preparing a resume, doing practice interviews, and organizing a job search. MME Specialists also help individuals with other important aspects of a job search, such as good grooming and hygiene, problem solving, and providing transportation if necessary.
