„„.,,,i,,,,, , <br /> k . , , <br /> 8 <br /> vs <br /> , , <br /> Licensing <br /> A license is required in order to provide SVS services.The Pleasanton location will be <br /> licensed to serve 60 consumers,although at full capacity fewer than half that number <br /> will be resent in the facility. Most of the program training and activities take place in <br /> the wider community. SVS has been very successful in moving service participants <br /> from activities in site based locations into partial and full employment within the <br /> community. We plan to do the same from our new location in Pleasanton. <br /> Below please find a definition of type of facility we plan to operate(day program) and <br /> the services we will be providing to our consumers. <br /> Day Program-for adults who have completed ublic school services to increase their <br /> skill levels,prepare for a maximum level of independence in their community and to <br /> prepare for work. (http://www.rceb.org/about/services.html) <br /> Vocational Training/Supported Employment refers to service provisions wherein <br /> people with disabilities, including intellectual disabilities,mental health,and traumatic <br /> brain injury,among others,are assisted with obtaining and maintaining employment <br /> originally through the primary models of job crews,enclaves,or the often preferred job <br /> coach or person-centered approaches.Supported employment is considered to be one <br /> form of employment in which wages are expected, together with benefits from an <br /> employer in a competitive workplace, though some versions refer to disability agency <br /> paid employment. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supported employment) <br /> "Under the Americans with Disabilities Act(ADA)and other laws, It is unlawful for <br /> any person or organization to discriminate against disabled persons because of their <br /> condition.” <br /> SVS provides essential job training services for disabled people from the greater <br /> Pleasanton area,and it is critical to their success that the training and their jobs are <br /> within the greater Pleasanton area. <br /> Please feel free to contact me with questions.
