Less than a decade old, our Employment Service is recognized as a state leader in the provision of supported employment services.
Supported employment is competitive work in regular jobs for people with disabilities.
We look beyond the jobs traditionally available, and seek those which best suit the skills and interest of the individual candidate. Today, with support, people are performing clerical jobs at a major insurance company, reclaiming raw materials at a chemical manufacturing plant, and merchandise handling at retail stores. These jobs are in addition to those working in traditional entry level positions. The individuals assisted are tax-paying citizens, and productive members of society. For eight years, OHI Employment Services has provided Shop Rite with dependable, loyal, hard working employees.
