Social Service Agency Responsibilities and Support

Social service agencies provide vocational expertise to Teaching Together Chicago with ongoing support with the Schools and interns for job training, placement, and follow up.

Social service agencies work collaboratively with the Schools and the individual with disabilities to assess, screen, provide individualized employment planning and successfully place interns.

Direct support continues through the orientation period including successful completion of Virtus training. Through regular communication with the school and intern, concerns or recommendations are discussed, and additional job coaching is available.
