Vocational Rehabilitation - Supported Employment - Oklahoma

Supported employment services are available to help individuals who have severe physical, emotional, mental or multiple disabilities adjust to workplace expectations.

Individualized plans for supported employment are developed by each person with assistance from Oklahoma Department of Rehabilitation Services (DRS) counselors and community-based organizations. Each plan includes specific milestones to be met on the way to meeting employment goals. DRS contracts with community-based organizations to provide supported employment services, such as skills assessment, job placement assistance, on-site job training, and follow-up. These services are focused on helping individuals meet milestones in the plan.

Supported Employment service providers are paid for services when individuals reach designated milestones in their employment plan.

The milestone payment system differs from fee-for-service funding because it reimburses the provider for the average cost of achieving a designated outcome, rather than the cost of staff time spent on the process. This innovative system is designed to cut government spending, enhance service delivery and contribute to greater consumer satisfaction.
