DeKalb Enterprises is DeKalb CSB's Developmental Disabilities Services Employment Program. DeKalb Enterprises provides sheltered and community integrated work experience to consumers.

Sheltered Employment
The program's sheltered (in-house) employment provides work for about 150 persons. Workshop staff obtain contract packaging, assembly, recycling, and other work which consumers are paid to process in our facility. Supervision and training/instruction are provided in structured work groups throughout the day. Program components include work activity, day support services, specialized employment, nursing, medical, transportation services and behavioral supports. Consumers work on a variety of contract work tasks and are paid based on their productivity. Improved consumer productivity, work habits, acceptance of supervision, and the development of prevocational skills are primary focuses of activity.

Day Support Services
Day Support services are offered to consumers. Day Support activities provide a combination of facility-based and community-based activities. Consumers receive a minimum of six hours per month participating in a variety of community activities.

Community Integrated Employment
Community integrated employment of consumers is offered through DeKalb Enterprises, Supported Employment Services. Instructors, and part-time Job Coaches, assigned to individual consumers develop employment opportunities in the community and provide consumers training and supports tailored to success in that job. The program focuses on community integration, financial independence, and employment success for consumers. Office hours for Supported Employment are 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, but coaching and other services are provided as needed. Supported Employment schedules vary with consumer employment hours and locations. The sheltered work program is open from 8:00 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. Consumers are scheduled two 15-minute breaks and a 45-minute lunch break during their workday.
