1 DVR and WIOA System Information and Strategies for Youth CHERYL CARVER DVR STEVE WRIGHT CDLE
2 Learning Objectives Learn about the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation and Workforce Development systems as it pertains to transitionaged youth in Colorado Gain a better understanding of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act requirements and changes that are being implemented See some of the overlap between these programs and how our systems can collaborate to improve outcomes for the youth we serve
3 Purpose and Scope of VR Rehabilitation Act Right to live independently, make choices, contribute to society, pursue meaningful careers and enjoy full inclusion Increased employment through vocational rehabilitation program Maximize employment, economic self sufficiency, independence and inclusion, and integration
4 Purpose and Scope of VR Regarding WIOA Places increased emphasis on service to transition age students Focus on employer/vr relationships Focus on Unified State Plan/Combined State Plan With mandated partners (i.e. Title I Programs, Wagner Peyser Employment Services, Vocational Rehabilitation and Adult, Education & Literacy) Increased and mandated focus on youth transitions
5 Overlap/Implications DVR & Workforce Vocational Rehabilitation has an enhanced focus on serving disabled youth with Pre Employment Transition Services Local offices shall work with local workforce development boards, one stop centers, and employers to develop work opportunities for students with disabilities, including internships, summer employment and other employment opportunities available throughout the school year, and apprenticeships
6 Funding Impact of WIOA for DVR Requirement of 15% of the existing Federal grant to be reserved for Pre Employment Transition Services (PETS) No additional funds for schools/activities Equates to FY 17 = estimated $7 million Must set aside 50% of supported employment funds for services to youth No increase to Federal supported employment grant
7 Overview of the VR Process Referral Application Eligibility Delayed Eligible Closed Other Rehabilitated Employed Service J Service
8 Referral to DVR The optimum timing for DVR to begin working with a student with a disability is when he or she is ready, and available, to engage in the activities necessary to establish an employment goal, develop an employment plan, and participate in vocational services in order to become employed. The time at which this occurs is unique to each individual, and does not necessarily correspond to a specific age or a specific event such as graduation. Rather, it should occur at a time when the youth s emphasis shifts from an academic focus to an employment focus, and the youth becomes available for vocational programming. DVR requires that the employment plan for a DVR transition participant (not on a deferred services waiting list) must be developed and approved before the student leaves the school setting.
9 WIOA Youth vs Student with Disabilities Youth with Disabilities Ages May be in or out of secondary education Students with Disabilities Ages Must be enrolled in secondary education with an IEP or 504 Plan Pre Employment Transition Services Specific set of services Only provided to Students with Disabilities
10 Initial Changes to DVR s Process Services to Students with Disabilities At 15 okay to: Attend IEP when invited Educate and provide technical assistance about DVR and preparing for employment If the student is ready for PETS accept an application and begin moving through VR process No change to lawful presence policies No change to required timelines What about plan development?
11 Pre Employment Transition Services (PETS) Job exploration counseling Work based learning experiences, which may include in school or after school opportunities or experience outside the traditional school setting (including internships) that is provided in an integrated environment to the maximum extent possible. **Comprehensive Needs Survey Counseling on opportunities for enrollment in comprehensive transition or postsecondary educational programs at institutions of higher education Workplace readiness training to develop social skills and independent living Instruction in self advocacy, which may include peer mentoring ***Available only to students with disabilities (aged under an IEP or 504)
12 # 1 Factor predicting post school career success: Work experience during high school
13 What is Seamless Transition? A sequential delivery of specific preparatory and coordinated services that: begin in early high school and continue through post school follow up supports, with the intended outcome of each student employed in an individualized, integrated job of choice and/or enrolled in postsecondary education prior to school exit.
14 WIOA & Colorado s Transition Continuum Students with Disabilities Adult Partnership Linkages Post Secondary Education Job exploration counseling Work based learning experiences, which may include in school or after school opportunities or experience outside the traditional school setting (including internships) that is provided in an integrated environment to the maximum extent possible. Counseling on opportunities for enrollment in comprehensive transition or postsecondary educational programs at institutions of higher education Workplace readiness training to develop social skills and independent living Instruction in self advocacy, which may include peer mentoring DVR Community Centered Boards Postsecondary Education Systems Social Security Administration Independent Living Centers Mental Health Centers Work Force Centers Business/Industry Sector Partnerships Career Training Pathways Indicators 13 & 14 Competitive, integrated employment Enrolled postsecondary education
15 Possible Implications of using the best features of WIOA Work experiences early and often! Paid work as both a key transition intervention and the desired outcome Collaborations between schools, VR, and their partners focus on the employment outcome for commonly served youth (not just the hand off )
16 What We Know Successful high school work experience = higher adult employment rates Continued post school support is necessary for some categories of youth in order to sustain employment success (in WIOA this = follow up, possibly mentoring)
17 What Is The Norm? Sporadic or episodic work experiences during secondary school Poor post school employment success, especially for: Youth with intellectual and developmental disabilities Youth with significant support needs
18 Three Possible Transitions Scenarios: 1. Youth exits school with no work experience 2. Youth exits school with work experience, but no postschool supports in place 3. Youth exits school with work experience and seamless linkage to adult system and/or educational supports
19 The Ideal Scenario Youth are jointly served by school system and adult employment agencies BEFORE school exit.
20 How do we collaborate for career pathways? There are a variety of ways in which schools can effectively link exiting students with community service agencies that may provide services as the student prepares to leave, and following exit from, the school system. These strategies are intended to maximize opportunities for youth to connect with appropriate agencies. It is most critical for educators to remember that relationships and consistent communication are the keys to successfully accessing services for youth. Attend IEP meetings, when invited Collaborate with community partners, including workforce centers, to develop work opportunities Coordinate with Work Force Centers and DVR to assist with awareness, preparation, exploration activities to compliment curriculum and contribute to the IEP and ICAP
21 Continued collaboration Schedule regular meeting times (e.g. monthly, quarterly) Provide periodic (e.g. beginning of the year and mid year) updates on students Arrange for space in the school for agency representatives to meet with parents, students and other teachers Become familiar with agency services, useful documentation, eligibility requirements, and referral process Obtain printed materials (e.g. brochures, contact information) from agencies to share with parents and students Co sponsor an Agency Night for parents and students Invite agency representatives to be available at school events, such as Back to School nights or Parent Teacher Conferences Involve agency representatives in classroom or School to Career activities (e.g. mock interviews, job search training activities, job shadows, review of employer concerns) Ensure district participation on local Interagency Transition Teams
22 Collaborations & Community Partners Examples Zoo Project Project SEARCH Jeffco CSBG Children s Hospital Sunny Acres St Vrain Valley School District Nutritional Services Work Study Hudson Gardens Denver Health
23 Now Let s TRANSITION to WIOA
24 WIOA Youth Overview Serves in school youth (ages 14 21) and out of school youth (ages 16 24) Increases funding prioritized to out of school youth Requires 20% of youth funds to be spent on work experiences Adds four youth program elements that must be competitively procured: Financial literacy education Entrepreneurial skills training Career awareness/exploration based on in demand sectors Postsecondary education preparation

29 New Youth Program Elements Five New Elements (total of 14 program elements): Financial literacy Entrepreneurial skills training Services that provide labor market and employment information in the local area Activities that help youth transition to postsecondary education and training Education offered concurrently with and in the same context as workforce preparation activities and training for a specific occupation or occupational cluster
30 Additional Program Elements (from WIA) 1. Tutoring, study skills, dropout prevention strategies 2. Alternative secondary school offerings 3. Summer employment opportunities linked to academic and occupational learning 4. Paid and unpaid work experience 5. Leadership development 6. Supportive Services 7. Adult mentoring 8. Comprehensive guidance and counseling 9. Occupational skill training 10. Follow up activities for no less than 12 months after completion of participation
31 Career Services Former WIA core and intensive services are merged under WIOA into a single new category of Career Services. Under WIOA, individuals have enhanced access to training by ensuring there is no sequence of service requirement. Job seekers who are basic skills deficient now have priority for Adult program services along with low income job seekers and public assistance recipients.
32 Career Services
33 Training and Work Based Learning WIOA Continues classroom training, and emphasizes more on the job training, work experience and apprenticeship opportunities WIOA expands training opportunities transitional jobs, incumbent worker training WIOA directs contracts to higher education institutions to provide class size training WIOA requires transparency in performance outcomes
34 Emphasis on Work Based Learning Funding Youth Work Experiences: At least 20% of local Youth formula funds must be used for work activities such as: Summer jobs Pre apprenticeship On the job training Internships
35 Transferring Funding Local Workforce Development Boards can transfer funding: Local boards can transfer 100% of funds between Dislocated Worker and Adult programs. Up to 10% of both funds can be used for transitional jobs for individuals with barriers to employment.
36 Other Key Changes WIOA requires 75% of state and local Youth funding be used for out of school youth. FUNDING, not ENROLLMENTS! 50% exception for states that receive a minimum allotment. Under WIOA, Youth Councils are no longer required; however, Standing Youth Committees are encouraged. Colorado is committed to maintain the State Youth Council to provide support/ta

44 Career Pathways & Sector Partnerships Career pathways is a key component of the WIOA; Colorado s workforce system has grasped this concept and been coordinating regionally and statewide Aligns public partners and engages them in a continuous conversation that is led by industry and ensures that jobseekers and students move seamlessly through support programs, educational institutions, training opportunities, and workbased experiences to build skills and credentials that meet industry demand and prepare them for jobs and careers. In Colorado, the statewide career pathway system aligns career pathway programs and systems developed throughout high demand industries in each economic development region of the state.
45 Sector Partnerships An industry specific regional partnership led by business in partnership with economic development, education, and workforce development. Are employer driven; Are regional; Are convened by a credible third party Act as a coordinating body across multiple education, workforce development, economic development and other programs Create highly customized responses to a target industry s needs, and therefore highly accurate responses They are about more than workforce training Treat employers as partners, not just customers Are NOT a grant program, a short term project, a passing fad; they are a long term partnership check out the toolkit icon in particular
46 Sector Partnerships Are Really Happening Northern Colorado Manufacturing Partnership Strengthen Capacity and Connections of Education and Training Providers 2+3 Engineering pathways Industry badges for work based projects Partner with K 12 to incorporate hands on experience Expand Work Based Experiences for Students Develop guidance to support increased experiences Set milestones and metrics for increasing opportunities Adapt Curriculum to Meet Industry Needs Cross program advisory committees of hiring authority and high performing workers Provide hands on supplements to curriculum through practical cases for students
