The New York State Plan for Vocational Rehabilitation and Supported Employment for Federal Fiscal Years 1992, 1993, and 1994.
New York State Education Dept., Albany. Office of Vocational and Educational Services for Individuals with Disabilities.
This New York state plan provides a framework for promoting full opportunities for all individuals with disabilities in both the workplace and the community. It is a legal compact which describes the nature, scope, and conditions of the state's program and ensures that program administration will conform to federal legislation and regulations. The plan begins with an outline of the vocational rehabilitation process in New York and then presents priorities, current activities, and planned activities for fiscal years 1992-1994. Priorities include: improve access to services and programs of the State Education Department, ensure coordination of services, increase integrated employment options, foster independent living services, improve access to vocational rehabilitation services, and improve program and fiscal management. Activities conducted to coordinate educational and vocational services are then described. Appendices comprise approximately three-fourths of the planning document and include: (1) required state assurances; (2) a description of services and planned activities for vocational rehabilitation and supported employment (Attachments for Title I and Title VI of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 as amended in 1986); (3) a list of district offices of the New York Office of Vocational and Educational Services for Individuals with Disabilities (VESID); and (4) a list of New York Independent Living Centers.
