Find and Keep Work That Builds
Independence and Confidence

For people living with a serious mental illness, employment can be an important step to recovery—it improves self-esteem, builds a routine, and reduces stress. Guild’s Supported Employment services follow the Individual Placement and Support (IPS) model, which integrates competitive work into the recovery process. Clients receive personalized, one-on-one coaching, interview preparation, connection to job opportunities, and continued support after placement to help them achieve financial stability and greater independence.

Employment Services

Employment Services help individuals determine career interests, search for jobs of their choice, and prepare for interviews. We also provide coaching on maintaining employment, navigating disclosure to employers, and partnering with treatment teams and vocational services to ensure long-term stability and career success.

“With hope, I can go many places mentally. I’m a strong believer that peace of mind is the best thing in the world. If you got peace of mind, you can move mountains. Guild has put me in a state of mind to have peace of mind.”

—Larry E.
