Description
The IPS service follows the evidence-based Individual Placement and Support model, adapted for the context of substance use recovery. Key features include: • Integration with Substance Use Services: Employment specialists work as part of the multidisciplinary substance use team, ensuring seamless coordination with treatment plans. • Person-Centred Approach: Support is tailored to the individual’s goals, strengths, and readiness, with no prerequisite of sobriety or abstinence required to participate. • Rapid Job Search: Emphasis on quickly connecting individuals to employment opportunities rather than prolonged pre-employment training. • Employer Engagement: Building relationships with local employers to identify job opportunities and address potential concerns about hiring individuals in recovery. • Time-Unlimited Support: Ongoing assistance provided both pre- and post-employment, including job coaching, workplace adjustments, and relapse prevention strategies. • Holistic Support: Addressing barriers such as transportation, childcare, legal issues, or health needs through referrals and partnerships
