Supported Employment Services in California

Finding a job doesn’t need to be difficult. We proudly assist those with mental health disorders so they can enter the workforce and make a difference.

We Break Down Employment Barriers

At Pacific Clinics, the employment training and placement services we provide help eliminate barriers to securing a job, such as transportation, housing, mental health challenges and social skills. Our clients receive the support they need to learn essential workplace skills, build confidence and land a stable job.

The Individual Placement and Support (IPS) Model

Pacific Clinics operates under the IPS model to help clients find jobs that boost their income and self-image. This model involves eight key principles at its core:

• Competitive Employment: All jobs are available with no limitations.
• Systematic Job Development: Specialists collaborate with employers who meet clients’ preferences.
• Rapid Job Growth: Quick programs allow clients to meet with employers within 30 days.
• Integrated Services: Prospective employees work alongside mental health specialists.
• Benefits Planning: Dedicated team members help clients obtain and understand various government benefits they can receive.
• Zero Exclusion: Every client can participate regardless of diagnosis or health history.
• Time-Unlimited Supports: Collaboration with clients and employment specialists can last as long as one needs.
• Worker Preferences: Clients choose a job that suits their interests rather than depending on a specialist to decide for them.

Every component of this program helps vulnerable members of our community succeed and live an independent life.

Feel Fulfilled in Your New Job

Employment training is a huge part of thriving in social situations and feeling more confident.

Entering the workforce helps clients have better control over their symptoms, reduces their chance of hospitalization or substance use and provides a better quality of life. In addition, they can learn skills that will help them in daily life and recover from the difficulties of mental health challenges.
