Community Solutions is your local provider for Disability Employment Services (DES). We deliver two types of DES programs:
Employment Support Service: For people with permanent disability and an assessed need for longer term, regular support in the workplace.
Disability Management Service: For people with disability, mental ill-health, illness, or injury who need the help of an employment service but do not expect to need long-term support in the workplace.
You can find out more about the Disability Employment Services at the Australian Government website
