Virginia is an Employment First State. We believe everyone can work and contribute meaningfully to their communities– including individuals with developmental disabilities, mental health needs, substance use, or criminal justice involvement. Employment should be the FIRST option people explore before considering other community day services.
DBHDS does NOT provide employment services directly, but we work with other state agencies and community partners to help people with:
- 발달 장애
- 행동 건강(BH) 요구 사항
다음과 같은 방법으로 고용을 지원합니다:
- 개인, 가족, 제공자 및 기관 직원에게 교육 및 기술 지원 제공
- 경쟁력 있는 통합 고용에 대한 접근성 촉진
- 주 전체 고용률 및 결과 추적 및 보고
Who Can Benefit from Employment?
Jobs may look different for people with DD or BH needs, but the benefits are the same. Some people may need extra support at work – and that’s okay. People with DD or BH needs can benefit from working just like anyone else. Employment can provide:
- 목적의식과 자존감
- 독립성
- 재무 안정성
- 건강 및 웰빙
올바른 직업과 권리 지원만 있다면 일은 누구에게나 긍정적인 삶의 일부가 될 수 있습니다!
What Services are Available?
DBHDS가 직접 서비스를 제공하지는 않지만, 당사와 협력하고 있습니다:
이러한 서비스에는 다음이 포함됩니다:
고용의 모습
Even though work may look differently for someone with DD or BH needs – their rights are the same as everyone else, and they should be treated the same. Employment should be:
- 커뮤니티에서 선택한 직업의 커뮤니티에서
- 비슷한 배경을 가진 비슷한 업무를 하는 다른 직원들과 동등하고 공정한 급여를 받습니다.
- 사교 활동 및 업무 관련 활동에서 동료들과 교류할 수 있는 포용적이고 통합적인 기회 제공
- Growth-oriented, with opportunities to learn and advance
지원자를 지원하는 가장 좋은 방법은 지원자가 무엇을 좋아하는지, 무엇을 잘하는지 등 지원자를 파악하고 업무와 현재 및/또는 미래의 고용 관련 목표에 대해 대화를 시작하는 것입니다.
Not everyone will want to work in a traditional job working for someone else. Your job might also look different if you choose to work for yourself. If you do choose to start your own business or even work as an entrepreneur, you can receive employment support to help you.
복리후생 계획
Sometimes people worry that working will impact their Social Security or other benefits they need to live. It’s important to know that you CAN work without your benefits being impacted.
There are professionals who can help you learn what to do if you want to work and protect your benefits, and the rules that you must follow. These professionals are certified as either a WISA (Work Incentive Specialist Advocate) or WIPA (Work Incentive Planning and Assistance). Both can provide you with important information about work and benefits planning.
