Employment Solutions


"We believe that people with disabilities have a right to live and work in their home community.  BCDC is dedicated to providing them with the opportunity they need to make this possible."

When a consumer is ready for employment in the community, they move into BCDC's Supported Employment Program called Employment Solutions.  In this program, Community Employment Specialist work closely with the consumer to evaluate their job interests and goals.  The Specialists then seeks employment for the consumer in the community.  Once the job has been identified, intensive training begins to ensure the consumer feels comfortable in their new career choice.  During this phase, the Community Employment Specialist works one-on-one with the consumer until they feel comfortable in their job duties.  The Specialist then gradually fades out while continuing to monitor the new employee.  This program is very beneficial to consumers just entering the workforce as it allows employers as well as consumers to feel comfortable with the new employment.

This a highly successful program that was established in 1993. Since then, BCDC has been responsible for over 180 competitive employment placements in the community.
