Abstract	The report by the Employment Preparation Committee of the President's Committee on Employment of People with Disabilities examines the impact of the 1984 Carl D. Perkins Vocational Education Act in light of its consideration for renewal in 1989. A position statement by the Committee urges the adoption of seven principles concerned with (1) setting aside of 10% of vocational education funds to serve disabled youth; (2) requiring statewide aggregate, 50:50 match of setaside funds; (3) strengthening the required role of certified rehabilitation counselors; (4) permitting states to use 10% of funds for program improvement projects and activities; (5) requiring programs and services at all levels for both youth and adults; (6) strengthening provisions for interagency agreements and coordination; and (7) broadening criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of vocational education programs. The major portion of the document contains the proceedings of hearings held to identify reauthorization issues and includes a hearing summary and the following written statements: a position statement of the National Association of Special Needs Administrators; a joint position statement of the American Rehabilitation Counseling Association and the National Rehabilitation Counseling Association; a statement on dropouts and potential dropouts by the Legislative Study Committee of the Special Needs Division of the American Vocational Association; and a position statement of the National Association of Vocational Assessment in Education.
