The Think College Inclusive Higher Education Network established the Employment Partnerships Collaborative Workgroup to promote and improve collaboration between college and university programs for students with intellectual disability and entities that can support the employment and career goals of their students.
The Employment Partnerships Collaborative Workgroup brings together representatives including VR counselors, employers, community employment agencies, transition professionals, and employers. The workgroup is tasked with identifying and addressing policy and practice barriers to build capacity for stronger collaboration. The workgroup is developing resources to raise awareness, highlight promising practices, and replicate successful employment partnership activities.
