Certified employment specialists empower clients to make informed career choices. The staff offers assistance in preparing resumes, completing applications, improving interview skills, and accessing community resources. New Frontiers' person-centered planning focuses on:

  • Creative job development
  • Appropriate job placement
  • Continuous job retention
  • Your business can benefit from New Frontiers' cost-effective, reliable employment services while providing valuable work experience to local adults striving to become more independent. Your company can be a site for job trials (a one-time job "tryout" lasting 2-4 hours); work experience (a real-life job experience totalling 6 hours per week for two weeks); or permanent employment for qualified applicants with disabilities.

    To learn more about New Frontiers Employment Services, contact Jackie Verville, PCRS executive director, by visiting our "Contact Us" page or by calling 812-838-0636.
