Through real stories about Individual Placement Services (IPS) support, the Thrive Through Work initiative is proving that access to regular jobs helps people, businesses, and communities thrive together. This initiative was developed by Strong365 Lab, with support from California Department of Health Care Services.

IPS Employment Center is proud to serve as a Center of Excellence (COE) for the implementation of the Individual Placement and Support (IPS) Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) as part of California's effort to expand access to and strengthen the continuum of community-based behavioral health services for individuals living with significant behavioral health needs.
