Company Description
1st Choice Employment Agency is a Missouri-based non-profit organization founded in January 2014 that specializes in helping individuals with disabilities and other vocational barriers achieve competitive, long-term employment. Headquartered in Jefferson City and CARF-accredited with BBB membership, the agency partners closely with the Missouri Division of Vocational Rehabilitation to ensure qualified participants receive individualized, outcome-focused support at no cost. Its Employment Services program equips job seekers with practical tools for a successful search, including resume and reference development, application support, interview preparation, and guidance on professional attire and communication etiquette. Through Supported Employment, 1st Choice utilizes a Discovery & Exploration process to identify appropriate job goals, facilitates on-site job shadows and assessments, and delivers on-site job coaching until the individual can perform successfully and independently; to promote retention, the team provides follow-up support for a full year after hire. Soft skills development—covering punctuality, attendance, workplace safety, adherence to policies, and positive coworker relationships—is built into the approach, and employer advocacy helps bridge any gaps so job duties align with the candidate’s abilities. Employers benefit from access to motivated talent, reduced turnover and training costs, and may leverage incentives such as the Work Opportunity Tax Credit and On-The-Job Training. With a highly trained staff and strong relationships across local businesses, 1st Choice operates throughout Audrain, Cole, Callaway, Camden, Osage, Miller, and Moniteau counties, connecting participants to opportunities across a wide range of industries while emphasizing dignity, independence, and meaningful community inclusion. The agency’s Jefferson City office at 514 E High St serves as a central hub for consultations, job search support, and ongoing retention services, reflecting a proven track record of helping candidates secure the support, belief, and confidence necessary to meet employment goals and sustain success in the workplace.
