Group Supported Employment

The primary objective of the Group Supported Employment program is to prepare clients for full community integration.   We offer job specific training that will support each individual to achieve employment at their highest functional level.  Services include supervision and training based on individual needs and desires.  

The community of Prairie du Chien has been an amazing partner with us to provide a number of opportunities for our clients to learn new skills and gain experience working in community integrated settings.

​Some of our wonderful partners include:
The Tourist Information Center
Hoffman Hall
City Hall
Bargain Boutique
The Shopping News
Park and Rec Department
​Opportunity Enterprises
Prairie Industries
​NuPak

In addition to our partnerships outside the Opportunity Center, we also provide group supported employment services through our manufacturing business, Sharing Spaces Kitchen, Cafe Hope and the Greenhouse.  

​Clients are able to learn many new food industry
related skills while working in the kitchen and cafe
​(retail sales, washing dishes, packaging product and customer service skills).
