Abstract | Relatively few young adults with serious mental health disabilities seek out or obtain adult vocational rehabilitation services, which they may perceive as stigmatizing and limiting their access to career paths and resources available to other young adults. Self-determination skills and behaviors have emerged as key to improved post-school employment outcomes for high school-aged youth with disabilities, including those with serious emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD). There also is a growing recognition of the importance of self-determination in vocational rehabilitation services, including for adults with serious mental health conditions. The purpose of this report is to provide basic information about self-determination and career development engagement for young adults with mental health diagnoses. The research findings in this report highlight the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of the Self-Determined Career Development Model (SDCDM) for advancing the career development of young people with serious mental health conditions. The model appears very promising and warrants a full-scale efficacy trial to more thoroughly evaluate its outcomes. (ERIC). |
