Summary
:
IDEA requires transition services to be provided to students with disabilities in order to improve post school outcomes for employment and independent living.
The Federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunities Act (WIOA) requires that the Department of Rehabilitation provide "Pre-employment Transition Services (PETS)" to high school students with disabilities age 16-21. PETS are an outcome oriented and coordinated set of activities that promotes movement from school to post school activities.
In order to support MDUSD students in transitioning, MDUSD will access WIOA funds through this contract which will provide $33,000 to be used for student wages as they are employed at in-school or off-site employment internships.
The contract will serve 10 students in the 2015/2016 school year and 30 students in the 2017/2018 school year.
