NATIONAL CHILDREN'S CENTER INC

Ncc supports people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to obtain employment, develop a career path and acquire and retain competitive employment. Agency employment specialists initiate a positive personal profile (ppp), which guides each person through a "discovery" process and creates a job search plan that is customized for each job seeker. The ncc employment specialists look for employment based on information obtained in the ppp and match interests, skill sets and required skills needed for the job to determine suitability. Job coaches provide the necessary job coaching and on-the-job training and support, while employers and co-workers are supported to work effectively with the new employees.
