Coalition of Mainstream Employment Programs

The CMEP is an education and training coalition of almost fifty agencies serving the ‘integrated employment’ needs of agencies in the greater New York City area.  Launched in 1986, the Coalition is a forum in which member agencies come together to solve common problems and promote the growth of community-based employment programs.  While the main focus of the group has been on supported employment, the CMEP advocates for all types of integrated options, including competitive placement with or without supports, transitional placements, and so forth.

This website is designed to be a useful resource for members and others in the integrated employment field.  You can find:
