Abstract | Competitive employment (i.e., employment in community settings among people without disabilities for minimum wage or higher) improves quality of life for people with disabilities who have individualized support needs (ISN). However, attaining competitive employment can be challenging for people with ISN. This study used a mixed methods design to evaluate the perspectives of 68 families who attended the Family Employment Awareness Training ("FEAT"). Findings indicated that families who attended "FEAT" (a) accessed competitive employment resources following "FEAT" and (b) reported competitive employment outcomes for their family members with ISN following "FEAT." We discuss implications of these findings and recommendations for future research. (As Provided). |
