Supported Employment Programs
Supported Employment helps individuals with the most significant disabilities — including intellectual disabilities, autism, traumatic brain injuries, and severe psychiatric disabilities — obtain and maintain competitive integrated employment through ongoing job coaching, customized job development, and workplace supports. Services follow a "place then train" model, focusing on real jobs at real wages alongside nondisabled coworkers before or instead of pre-employment training in segregated settings. Long-term support services are typically funded through Medicaid waiver programs after the initial VR funding period ends.
U.S. Department of Education / State Vocational Rehabilitation Agencies

An Individualized Plan for Employment (IPE) is developed collaboratively between the counselor and the individual at no cost.
