Our Services
Supported Employment Continuum
Component I : Recruitment Drop-in- Center
The A.M.I.G.O.S. Drop-in Center offers 100+ adults social, recreational and supportive education; consumer self-help and peer support activities (job club and wellness group) as well as referral services and transportation.
Our objective is to develop the motivation to work and to also instill the basic skill sets and mental stability to function in a normalized work environment. The Supportive Employment Continuum consists of four components.
Component II : Entry Level Employment
Entry Level Employment offers community skills development, behavioral health education, interpersonal skills and paid vocational training (janitorial and general assembly) in a least restrictive, psycho-sensitive, normalized, low pressure environment.
The Affirmative Enterprises offers a variety of supported employment opportunities within Jeff Industries Affirmative Enterprises (i.e. sign company, wood working, janitorial, embroidery, sales and marketing)
Component III : Affirmative Enterprises Employment
This component provides a paid work experience in a normalized environment while earning minimum wage. Participants work on improving problems and barriers which have been preventing them from securing and maintaining employment under the supervision of a Job Coach.
Component IV : Community Based Job Placement
This component offers participants the opportunity to secure and maintain community-based employment in an integrated work setting. A Job Coach/ Placement Specialist will assist each individual in preparing for interviews, obtaining employment, and will regularly follow-up to ensure the success of the placement.
In the event a placement is unsuccessful, a "safety net" is in place to allow the participant the option of transition into an alternative component.
The Palm Haven Housing project offers permanent, supportive and affordable housing for 10 adults with mental illness.
The EdVenture Charter School ( a project of Jeff Industries Inc.) serves handicapped youth between the ages of 15 and 22 years who are deemed unsuitable for mainstream school programming and have been unsuccessful in other programs. It offers a multi-faceted approach designed to educate and shape appropriate behavior, teaching employability skills, work habits and other survival skills allowing a successful transition into community-based living and employment.
Agency programs are contracted by the Palm Beach County School District, The Florida Department of Children and Families, Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners, United Way of Palm Beach County, Adults with Disabilities Grant and private donations. The agency also derives support through the operation of non-profit Affirmative Businesses which provide paid employment and vocational training in normalized environments.
