Supports Coordination
Services To Enhance Potential’s dedicated and experienced Supports Coordinators help promote the independence of each member by assisting with a variety of services including but not limited to, housing services, benefit planning, case management, and health services. The relationships built with each member and their parents, guardians and/or caregivers have brought about a number of impressive outcomes for the members served. Year after year, STEP members are surveyed on the level of care provided. Our Supports Coordinators continuously receive scores above 95% in satisfaction.
Community Based Skill Building
Community Skill Trainers help design and promote community-based opportunities for our STEP members. Activities designed to promote Community Inclusion include social, recreational, and volunteer based opportunities.
Vocational Based Skill Building
Our Vocational Based Skill Building Program is designed to assist members with gaining valuable workplace skills. These services are provided within one of our four Resource Centers. We have Resource Centers in Detroit, Dearborn, and Western Wayne County. A variety of classroom trainings are also provided at a few of our community-based programs including our STEP Thrift Store and Donation Centers.
Supported Employment
Our Business and Employment Representatives are tasked with working with business partners in the community to help develop work opportunities for individuals with a developmental disability and/or mental illness. Informational classes are conducted routinely at Resource Centers and throughout the community to help promote interest in working in the community. Our representatives develop member focused vocational work plans to help members succeed in the employment setting. Job Coaches are often utilized and help promote a positive working relationship with STEP Staff, the employee, and the employer. Work readiness and skill specific training opportunities are provided to members prior to and during employment to assure long lasting employment.
