Aligning Community Practices with Trends in Rehabilitation: Researching and Validating the Pathways to Careers Initiative

Event Description: 

Mathematica's Center for Studying Disability Policy is sponsoring a policy forum and live webinar on aligning community practices with trends in rehabilitation. Research shows that only a small percentage of people with disabilities are in the workforce. Additionally, people with disabilites face obstacles when looking for full employment. An employment program, Pathways to Careers, helps people with disabilities prepare for the workforce. Mathematica's Center for Studying Disability Policy evaluated Pathway's progress and will discuss the practices Pathways uses in its program and the findings from their evaluation. Pre-registration for this event is required. The event will take place on Thursday, February 25, 2016, from 11:45 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. ET.
