OPTIONS Family of Services has a terrific job placement program to meet your employment needs.  If you are an employer seeking motivated, dependable, work-ready individuals, then I would like the opportunity to discuss your needs.

Contact Yvonne Barabas, Job Developer at ybarabas@optionsfs.org

Our Supported Employment Program pre-screens and trains people for competitive employment throughout San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara Counties.  Since the persons served are highly motivated, they may be better at filling your employment needs than candidates from traditional sources.

Our candidates are expertly trained on what employers needs are:

                  Positive / Respectful Attitude
                  Commitment
                  Attendance / Dependability
                  Accuracy and Attention to Detail
                  Team effort / Flexibility
                  Professionalism
                  Honesty 
                  Initiative / Responsibility
                  Attentiveness

Our goal is to reduce your employee turnover, while offering meaningful work to someone who truly appreciates an employment opportunity and the independance it brings. 

The employer's liability for individuals involved in Supported Employment is the same across the board.  The hiring process is virtually the same.  We can also serve as the Employer of Record if you are looking to hire 3 individuals or more!  We then would cover all Worker's Compensation, insurance and tax expenses.
