Employment Services is the division within Konocti LifeStyles that provides supported work opportunities. This occurs with a qualified and caring work supervisor and 2 clients (1:2). We provide a variety of janitorial and landscape maintenance services to both residential and commercial customers throughout Lake County. We also have work opportunities in our thrift store and distribution center. All clients are paid at least the current state set minimum wage, promoting their personal and financial independence.

In addition to teaching valuable work skills, such as teamwork, customer service and problem-solving, Employment Services allows the client/consumer the chance to interact with the community in several constructive and purposeful ways. By having the opportunity to demonstrate their talents and abilities in a public forum, clients/consumers receive a sense of self-worth and pride which only increases with each completed project or individualized goal.

These opportunities help foster a climate of inclusion and acceptance. The result is a mutually beneficial relationship between client/consumers and the community which extends long past the end of the workday.
