Analyzing the 2008–09 National Core Indicators Adult Consumer Survey, this study investigates community employment of working age (18–65) individuals with and without autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who receive services in the intellectual and developmental disability (IDD) service systems in 19 states. The findings show that 18.2% of adult service users of IDD services had a community job. People with ASD and people with ID had significantly lower odds of being employed in the community compared to those without ASD, after controlling for age, health, mobility, gender, level of ID, and challenging behavior. Results are presented in the context of current employment research and the implications of these findings are discussed.

Vocational rehabilitation service usage and outcomes for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Kelly NYE-LENGERMAN in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 41-42 (September 2017)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 41-42 (September 2017) . - p.39-50 Titre : Vocational rehabilitation service usage and outcomes for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Kelly NYE-LENGERMAN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.39-50 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  ASD  Vocational rehabilitation  Employment  Disability  Community living Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In the pursuit of improving employment outcomes for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), understanding how participants are using Vocational Rehabilitation (VR), and which services result in competitive integrated employment is of great interest to advocates, families, professionals, and policy makers. The primary objective of this study was to examine the relationships between participant characteristics, service delivery, and employment outcomes for individuals with ASD in state VR programs. Method The Rehabilitation Services Administration's Case Service Report (RSA-911) database for fiscal year 2013 was examined using a binary logistic regression analysis to explore ASD characteristics and service variables. Results Results indicate that ASD characteristics, defined as a source of impairment by VR, had predictive capacity for administrative VR services participants received (e.g. assessment and vocational rehabilitation counseling and guidance (VRCG)), but not for job-related services (e.g. job search, job placement, and on-the-job supports). In addition, job-related VR services were more likely to be associated with integrated employment at closure as compared to administrative VR services. In some cases, additional variables related to gender, race, and state system decreased the likelihood of a VR recipient receivingspecific services or achieving integrated employment. Conclusion Discussion includes how awareness of service access and equity can assist in improving the quality and outcomes of VR services.
