Description:
This program assists adults with disabilities to enter or re-enter the workplace
through the use of situational assessments, job placement and retention services,
and on-site supports such as job coaching. Individuals in this program are
typically referred from the Bureau of Rehabilitation Services (BRS) or Board of
Education and Services for the Blind (BESB) and usually only require short-term
assistance with finding and keeping a job. Some individuals may qualify for
longer-term services from these referral sources. It is through this program
area that the state may also contract with us to provide workplace-based
personal care assistants for employees with disabilities.
Eligibility:
People must meet the eligibility requirements for services. Each referring
agency has its own criteria for this. Marrakech accepts referrals from all
sources as well as self-pay referrals.
Program Locations:
Offices are located at Marrakech’s Employment and Training Center at:
526 Whalley Avenue
New Haven, CT 06511
We also utilize office space in Bridgeport, Waterbury, and Torrington.
