| Abstract | This booklet for Minnesota young people with disabilities and their families is intended to explain vocational rehabilitation services required under the Rehabilitation Act as amended in 1992 and transition services under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. The first section discusses vocational rehabilitation, transition services for students with disabilities ages 14 to 21, required transition provisions in the Individualized Education Program (IEP), and the transition IEP meeting. The next section considers eligibility for vocational rehabilitation, applying for services, assessment, and planning. The following section describes the Individualized Plan for Employment (IPE), which identifies job goals and needed services, and discusses rehabilitation technology and supported employment. The fourth section is on financial factors, including determination of "comparable benefits" and consumer financial participation. Next, the rehabilitation appeals procedure is detailed. Finally, the main features of the Americans with Disabilities Act are identified and suggestions for making vocational rehabilitation work for the individual are offered. Appendices provide a history of legislation affecting people with disabilities, supported employment definitions, and vocational rehabilitation appeals procedures. (CR) |
