May 21, 2024 | News

Carney to provide leadership for prevocational employment and increased support programs.

KANDU announced that Morghan Carney has been promoted to client service manager.  In her new role, Carney will be responsible for the development and implementation of activities, procedures and protocols for the organization’s prevocational employment and increased support programs. 

KANDU’s prevocational employment program provides employment training, supervision, and encouragement for adults with disabilities.  Staff work with clients on everything from behavioral skills to social integration into the work environment. Clients are supported as they build confidence in completing assigned tasks, work to improve job skills, and earn a paycheck in a safe and controlled work environment.  KANDU’s increased support program (ISP) offers similar programming combined with daily living skills training for clients who require a higher level of support.

Carney will work jointly with KANDU’s internal senior managers to provide supervision and leadership to a team of support staff while working directly with clients, guardians and families to develop individualized support plans.

Carney earned her promotion after serving as a client service coordinator for KANDU since July of 2023.  Carney graduated from Iowa State University with a B.S. in psychology, is a child abuse and dependent adult mandatory reporter, and has completed extensive training in health, ethics, and civil rights.
