Adelante
provides services for people with disabilities, including veterans with
disabilities. Currently, we are able to provide services to veterans who
are affiliated with or have an open case file with the New Mexico Division
of Vocational Rehabilitation (DVR) or veterans who have a Ticket to Work
from the Social Security Administration. Services are also available to
any person who is receiving SSI or SSDI cash benefits. Anyone who falls
into one of these categories is eligible for the following services:
Resume Development
Adelante can help you build a resume that gets you noticed and helps you
to translate the skills you gained in the military into civilian business
terms.
Job Development Plans
Adelante can help you set goals and objectives by exploring your likes
and dislikes, barriers to your employment like transportation, and family
issues that may impact your work hours. This type of personal exploration
can help you develop clear plans in regard to future employment.
Interviewing Skills
Adelante can teach you the ins and outs of interviewing successfully,
like how to dress appropriately for a position, how to answer questions
in a way that communicates your skills and knowledge, and how to ask what
you need to know in advance of taking on a new job.
Job Development/Business Contacts/Job Leads
Adelante works continually to build connections in the community in an
effort to connect the right applicant to the right open jobs in central
New Mexico. Our job is to help people with disabilities including disabled
vets to find and maintain employment in the Albuquerque metro area or
Valencia County.
Job Coaching/Job Support/Job Maintenance
Services
In many cases, Adelante is able to provide onsite support to help people
learn a new job to aid in their success in a new work place. Adelante’s
job coaches are trained alongside people hired through our employment
service to help them learn their roles and keep their jobs long-term.
These
services are offered through Adelante's EmployAbilities division which
includes our Employment Services program
and Ticket to Work program.
