Summer Jobs for Vocational Preparation of Moderately and Severely Retarded Adolescents

Vocational preparation of moderately and severely handicapped adolescents increasingly has emphasized instruction in the natural environment on skills that are directly applicable to employment situations. The program reported in this article combined this emphasis on realistic instruction with CETA services to provide fully paid community-based work experiences to moderately and severely handicapped high school students. Nine students learned a variety of community jobs and earned an average of $950 for their summer work. In addition to change in performance of handicapped students, the project noted change in the attitude of parents towards their teenagers. Overall the project was successful in providing remunerative work experience to a population of students that have been historically denied such vocational opportunities.
