ADULT YEARS: Where do we go for vocational evaluation and training?
The local Vocational Rehabilitation office will refer you for a psychological evaluation and may administer job related tests. After an extensive interview, medical history and other information, they will probably refer you to a program such as Good Will Industries, where vocational aptitude tests will be administered. Based on these findings, job placement will be recommended and a job coach assigned. Based on criteria of the employer, the person with a disability will be trained until competency is acquired. The job coach should also be available if problems arise on the job.
