Supported Employment: support people who have traditionally lacked the adequate and appropriate opportunities and assistance necessary to help them in the preparation of obtaining, maintaining, and regaining meaningful community based employment.
OJT: (On-The-Job-Training): assist people to learn individual skills while on the job in an integrated setting. These services will benefit persons with disabilities by helping them become more acclimated to the employment environment.
We believe that meaningful employment, a REAL JOB, is an important part of a successful life. We also believe that everyone should strive towards employment that matches their SKILLS, JOB READINESS, and most importantly, THEIR PREFERENCE.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Tampa Crossroads aims to close gaps between what's needed and what's available to residents of Tampa Bay. Currently services are provided in Hillsborough County, but the organization is expanding into surrounding counties where the population is growing faster than available resources. Tampa Crossroads has a current goal to expand in every way possible: physical location, populations served, partnerships, revenue, name recognition, and ultimately ensure the community is aware of the great successes occurring at Tampa Crossroads each and every day.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Tampa Crossroads has reorganized its leadership and increased the board membership, enabling the organization to increase its capacity for quickly acting on its goals. The board of directors has begun actively fundraising and marketing and Tampa Crossroads leadership has worked together to apply for and receive new funding streams through foundation grants. As we increase momentum through marketing, we expect to see increases in donations and partnerships that will enable us to find success in our expansion goals.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Tampa Crossroads has a strong team of dedicated employees, leaders, and volunteers who are highly experienced, skillful, and prepared to support the efforts of the organization. Between the strengths of the people who support the organization and the strengths of its history, experience, and high rate of successful outcomes, Tampa Crossroads has a high capacity for meeting all current goals. Additionally, the newly designed organizational structure and emphasis on an intentional organizational culture has uncovered untapped potential for Tampa Crossroads to far exceed any previous and current goals.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
Tampa Crossroads has been in existence since 1977 and thousands upon thousands of individuals have been not only served, but given the opportunity to achieve longterm success in the areas of permanent housing, employment, and recovery. The organization has transformed from a program successfully providing one very specific service, to an agency continuing to provide specific and individualized services, but on a larger scale to a growing list of populations. Tampa Crossroads looks forward to continuing to offer the same high quality level of care, treating people as individual people, and will continue to expand to serve our community in new ways as we strive to close gaps between the needs of our community and the resources available.
