Customized Employment Guide


This guide provides a look at the strategies used in Customized Employment (CE) and links to more information and resources for those who are just beginning to explore CE. It explains how CE might benefit individuals with disabilities seeking employment and students in transition from school to work. CE is based on several evidence based transition practices such as self determination, using self advocacy strategies, and providing community based instruction. Learn about OCALI’s experience with three teams in Ohio that served transition age youth. In addition to traditional funding sources these teams had access to funding for internships and resource ownership.
