Promoting Self-Sufficiency through Employment

Access to employment opportunities is vital to self-sufficiency, which is a core goal we hold for all of our clients. Many agencies at the Executive Office of Health and Human Services (EOHHS) provide employment-related services to more than 25,000 people annually. We work closely with people with disabilities, refugees and immigrants, individuals with mental illness, veterans, and low-income people to help them obtain meaningful employment opportunities in community-based settings.

With employment and health insurance, the individuals we serve contribute to their own financial stability and quality of life. In addition to helping to create meaningful, long-lasting opportunities for our clients, EOHHS's employment services also strengthen the Commonwealth's diverse workforce.

Focus Area

We provide services, training, and supports to individuals in targeted populations to enable our clients to obtain and sustain competitive employment.
