The manual outlines the agency's commitment to providing person-centered, community-based services that support individuals in achieving meaningful employment in competitive settings. It covers policies on career development, job placement, and the provision of necessary supports and accommodations to facilitate successful integration into the workforce. Additionally, the manual includes guidelines for individualized service planning, progress tracking, and collaboration with employers to ensure participants have access to equitable employment opportunities.
