IPS

Thinking About Working? We Can Help.

If working is one of your goals, our IPS team can support you—when you’re connected with services. Talk to your provider to learn more

WHAT IS INDIVIDUAL PLACEMENT AND SUPPORT ( IPS)? 

IPS is a program that helps people find real, paid jobs in their community. As part of your mental health treatment team, we work alongside your provider to support your employment goals.

We focus on:

  • Your strengths
  • Your interests
  • Your goals

WHO IS IPS FOR:

  • Adults who want to work
  • Individuals receiving mental health services
  • Anyone ready to take the next step toward employment

A DIFFERENT KIND OF JOB SUPPORT

  • No experience needed
  • No need to be “job ready”
  • Jobs based on your goals—not ours
  • Rapid job search (no long wait)
  • Ongoing, personalized support
