Employment Support Services
Meaningful work is an important part of recovery and community participation. Northpointe's vocational programs are designed to help adults living with behavioral health challenges explore, prepare for, and succeed in employment.
Our vocational specialists work one-on-one with individuals to identify their strengths, interests, and goals — then provide the tools and ongoing support needed to reach them. Services are available to eligible individuals in Dickinson, Iron, and Menominee counties.
