Despite increased attention by policymakers to improve postsecondary employment outcomes, rates of entry into the competitive workforce for transition-age youth with disabilities continue to lag behind their peers without disabilities. The passing of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act of 2014 provided increased opportunities for transition-age youth with disabilities to prepare for the world of work through coordinated service delivery between schools and state vocational rehabilitation (VR) agencies, including work-based learning, an established predictor of competitive employment. The current study uses the Rehabilitation Services Administration’s Case Service Report (RSA-911) data between the fiscal years 2017 to 2020. Multiple logistic regression was used to identify predictors associated with successful employment among 15,295 transition-age youth with disabilities who received both Pre-ETS and individualized VR services. Findings indicate discrepancies between the most effective and most frequently provided services. Implications for future policy, practice, and research are discussed.
尽管政策制定者越来越重视改善中学后的就业成果，但过渡年龄残疾青少年进入竞争性劳动力队伍的比率仍然落后于非残疾同龄人。2014 年通过的《劳动力创新与机会法案》（Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act of 2014）通过协调学校与州职业康复（VR）机构之间的服务提供（包括基于工作的学习，这是预测竞争性就业的一个既定指标），为处于过渡年龄段的残疾青少年提供了更多机会，让他们为就业做好准备。本研究使用了康复服务管理局 2017 至 2020 财年的案例服务报告（RSA-911）数据。研究采用多元逻辑回归法，在 15,295 名同时接受预就业服务（Pre-ETS）和个性化职业康复服务的过渡年龄残疾青年中，找出与成功就业相关的预测因素。研究结果表明，最有效和最常提供的服务之间存在差异。讨论了对未来政策、实践和研究的影响。
