Maintenance Opportunity Program

TSLI's Maintenance Opportunity Program (MOP)  was developed in 1986 through a grant from the  New York State Office of Mental Health in order to provide supported work opportunities to psychiatrically disabled adults.

MOP provides training and work experience in the following areas:

  • Office/building cleaning

  • Interior painting

  • Carpet steam cleaning

  • Floor buffing/waxing

 

In addition to offering task related skill development, MOP helps participants to develop good work habits. Each MOP worker receives both initial orientation and ongoing training. Performance evaluations are completed routinely and workers are eligible for raises and promotions based on performance.
