Threshold’s TE program provides employment opportunities for members seeking to enter or re-enter the workforce. Threshold manages these entry-level positions for employers. Staff train alongside with members and provide support as needed. Members work in these part-time entry level positions for a period of 6-9 months whereupon a new member transitions into the position. 

Designed as a vocational rehabilitation program, TE helps members develop or rebuild essential job skills and confidence while maintaining employment. By engaging in meaningful employment, members gain a sense of purpose and contribute to reducing stigma surrounding mental health in the workplace. 

Threshold’s SE program assists members in securing and maintaining jobs with community businesses and public employers. These positions can be career-oriented with opportunities for advancement. Threshold’s staff provide on-site and off-site support as needed by both the member and employer. SE jobs may be full-time or part-time and offer competitive wages. The level and duration of support vary based on individual needs and job requirements, with the goal of fostering long-term employment success and eventual independence.

The IE program supports members, when they are ready, in seeking and obtaining independent employment opportunities. The Clubhouse provides ongoing support and encouragement through its facilities or community-based resources for as long as members remain employed and desire assistance. There is no on-site support at the workplace.
