Abstract: Information for the Disability Employment Initiative Evaluation will be collected through annual site visits, a participant tracking system, and a survey. The DEI was designed to improve educational, training and employment opportunities and outcomes of youth and adults with disabilities by refining and expanding already identified successful public workforce strategies. The study will use two distinct quasi-experimental design (QED) study designs to determine the impact of DEI interventions on participant outcomes. Information collection relied heavily on previous control number 1230-0006.
