Current Narrative:
The Idaho Division of Vocational Rehabilitation (IDVR) manages the supported employment program for the state.
ICBVI has collaborated with IDVR on policies and procedures to ensure that extended services are available for youth with the most significant disabilities for up to 4 years, or until the individual turns 25 and no longer meets the definition "youth with a disability." Extended services can be provided following the achievement of employment stability when comparable external sources of long-term extended support are unavailable. ICBVI will support extended services with Title I funds, as needed, and will continue to leverage other sources of extended services.
