Supported Employment | Allwell Behavioral Health Services

C.O.R.E. provides time-limited training. The training involves assessment, support and supervised practice to strengthen at least 25 worker skills, attitudes, tolerances and capacities. A person can be in training as little as two days per week or as much as five. An assessment could be for two weeks, and supervised practice at the work center cannot exceed one year. Trainees are paid and benefits include workers compensation and Social Security retirement. Small parts assembly and hand packaging at the work center are piece rated jobs with no guaranteed minimum wage. Other jobs include training in office, passenger transport and delivery, maintenance, lawn care, and custodial services. Working at C.O.R.E. can affect SSI, SSDI, food stamps, housing subsidies, and medical cards. C.O.R.E. offers benefits planning so trainees can make informed decisions before they jeopardize entitlements. Trainees must provide their own transportation. There is no charge for training because it is funded through state and local tax dollars through the local Mental Health and Recovery Services Board.
