ACCES-VR participants with a significant disability and a vocational goal that supports customized employment.
What to do
Start here: Apply to ACCES-VR and discuss whether customized employment fits your employment goal with the counselor.
Eligibility: The person must qualify for ACCES-VR vocational rehabilitation and the employment goal must be included in an Individualized Plan for Employment (IPE).
What you get
Customized employment is an ACCES-VR employment strategy that can tailor job tasks, schedules, and arrangements to a person's strengths and an employer's business needs.
Benefit: Individualized employment planning and support toward a competitive integrated job.
Possible value: It may customize duties or an arrangement; it does not guarantee that an employer will create a position.
Good to know
Important: This is not a general job board; services, providers, and the IPE are individualized.
Availability: Current ACCES-VR employment strategy.
Why people miss it: The term sounds like a separate job program, but it is an individualized VR employment outcome.
