Employment Service for Adults with Disabilities

The Moniteau County SB40 Board provides Employment Services (Individual and/or Group) support in the form of Supported Employment, Job Development, Pre-Vocational, and Career Planning. Supported Employment is the ongoing support provided to individuals and their employers who, because of their disabilities, need intensive on-going support to maintain a job in competitive or customized employment, in an integrated work setting.  Employment outcomes are sustained paid employment at or above the minimum wage in an integrated setting in the general workforce, in a job that meets the person’s personal and career goal as provided in accordance with the Person Centered Support Plan (PCSP).

Moniteau County SB40 believes:

•     Everyone can work.
•     Everyone has the right to earn a living wage in a job of their choosing, based on their unique talents, gifts, skills, and interests.
•     Employment is a way for people to achieve their personal dreams of success, respect, control, and choice.
•     Having a job can be an important part of one’s self-identity and value in society today.
•     Everyone should be paid at least minimum wage.
