OhioMHAS Supported Employment

“Supported employment services help people with serious mental health conditions enter and succeed in the competitive labor market. Person-centered services are provided by teams of employment, mental health and work incentives/benefits specialists. Through these services, individuals find and maintain employment of their choice, and advance toward career development goals. Recovery is strengthened as they move ahead in a career direction of their choice.

Supported employment specialists use Individual Placement and Support (IPS), an evidence-based practice of supported employment services. It is often regarded as the employment service standard of care.”
