- q. Quality, Scope, and Extent of Supported Employment Services
q. 2. The timing of transition to extended services
Current Narrative:
For DSB, transition occurs when individuals work successfully without the provision of substantial services for at least 90 days. Extended follow-along services must be immediately available to preclude any interruption in the provision of the ongoing support needed to maintain employment. The expanded scope of supported employment long-term supports requires a continuation of DSB’s involvement to assist with the coordination and collaboration with the CRPs, employers, families and natural supports. Post-employment services are provided when supports and services needed by the individual exceed the responsibility of the extended long-term support services provider.
