Employment Services
Unlocking Your Potential Through Meaningful Work
Empowering you to build a stable and resilient path with meaningful work.
At Breakthrough Wichita, we understand that a meaningful job is more than just a paycheck—it’s a pathway to confidence, stability, and a brighter future. Our Employment Services are designed to empower you to overcome employment barriers and build the resilience needed for long-term success. We believe in your potential and are committed to helping you find and keep a job that aligns with your skills and aspirations.
We work with individuals who qualify for Vocational Rehabilitation to assess job readiness and find the proper fit for their skills and interests. Through Community-Based Work Assessments (CBWA), we provide resume and interview assistance, job tryouts, and provide continued support after employment is obtained. Individuals who qualify for the STEPS initiative, part of the Working Healthy Medicaid program, will find support in their employment search. Workers over 55 who meet certain income criteria may qualify for developing key work skills through our program in real-world environments, with the goal of attaining and sustaining unsubsidized employment.
* Breakthrough’s Employment program is separate from the Employment Unit in Breakthrough Clubhouse.
