Employment & Independence

Securing and maintaining employment can be challenging for individuals with mental health conditions or those in recovery from addiction. Research shows that with the right support, individuals are more likely to keep their jobs, experience improved mental health, and stay engaged in their communities.

At Easterseals Southeast Wisconsin, we recognize the importance of personalized employment support. By guiding individuals from application to hire and providing ongoing coaching, we help participants build confidence, independence, and valuable work skills while ensuring employers have motivated, well-prepared staff.

Our approach benefits everyone—employees gain meaningful, stable work and personal growth, and employers gain dedicated team members who are set up for success. Through these services, we empower individuals to thrive in the workplace and beyond.
