NEON Supported Employment Training Event
FREE to Attend
NASP has been selected as one of five state associations to receive three years of free training and technical support through the Office of Disability Employment Policy's (ODEP) NEON program.
The National Expansion of Employment Opportunities (NEON) is an initiative to collaborate with national provider organizations (NPOs, like NASP) to develop strategic plans for increasing competitive, integrated employment (CIE) opportunities for the individuals they serve, including those with significant disabilities and those who have faced barriers to employment. NEON currently provides technical assistance to five NPOs using a pool of national subject matter experts (SMEs) who serve as peer mentors in provider transformation and customized employment.
NEON also provides one-on-one technical support for the local provider organizations (LPOs) that are members within each NPO. In addition, NEON offers its participating organizations an opportunity to network with one another and to learn about effective strategies through peer-to-peer mentoring.
