Helping Members explore career goals, build workplace skills, and move toward meaningful employment.
Employment can provide more than income. It can bring structure, confidence, purpose, independence, and stronger connections to the community. Legacy’s Workforce & Development services support Members at different stages of that process, from identifying a career direction to building workplace readiness and maintaining a job.
Services are individualized around the Member’s strengths, interests, support needs, and employment goals, with an emphasis on competitive, integrated opportunities whenever appropriate.
A focused, time-limited service for Members who need a clearer professional direction. Career Planning may include self-evaluation, goal setting, vocational market research, situational assessments, and identifying credentialing or continuous-learning opportunities. The goal is to turn broad interests into realistic next steps.
Individual or group-based development of the general skills that support success across many types of workplaces. Training may focus on workplace communication, appropriate conduct, task attention, safe mobility, stamina, and independent problem-solving rather than the duties of one specific job.
Intensive one-to-one support for Members pursuing or maintaining competitive integrated employment. Services may include job development, position matching, task analysis, placement advocacy, travel training, family alignment, and ongoing monitoring of employer satisfaction and job performance. Support can adjust as duties change and the Member becomes more independent.
Small-group employment support for Members who benefit from learning and practicing alongside peers. Services may focus on professional communication, workplace social skills, self-advocacy, task-focused stamina, money management, and emotional regulation in community-based employment settings.
