The Impact of Early Work Experience on VR Outcomes Chris Clause Coordinator, Program Development Missouri Vocational Rehabilitation Introduction Results Since the summer of 2015, Missouri Vocational Rehabilitation has provided access to a summer work experience for students with disabilities who are entering their final year of high school. This project was designed in order to better understand the impact of participation in the summer work experience on VR employment outcomes. Variable Model 1 Model 2 SWE participant -0.08 (0.00) -0.09 (0.00) Age 16 0.06 (0.11) Age 17 -0.009 (0.65) Age 18 Reference Group Male 0.09 (0.00) White Black -0.08 (0.001) Other race -0.04 (0.35) Most Sig. D 0.02 (0.26) Sensory 0.04 (0.39) Physical -0.10 (0.01) Cognitive Psychosocial -0.05 (0.03) Other Mental -0.07 (0.11) Adj. R2 0.005 0.02 Study Purpose & Research Questions To better understand the mechanisms that underlie one specific program (SWE) on post-secondary employment outcomes. Research Question: Are SWE participants more likely to exit VR with employment than those who do not participate? Methods Design: Quasi-experimental design, adopting the propensity score matching method Data Source: Administrative data from the Missouri VR case management system Sample: 816 summer work experience participants; 2,005 non-participants (control) Data Analysis: Descriptive statistics & a series of Logistic Regression Propensity Score Model: Summer work experience participation = β0 + β1 (gender) + β2 (race/ethnicity) + β3 (age) + β4 (primary disability) + β5 (MSD) + µ. Linear Probability Model: Successful Employment Outcome = β0 + β1 (summer work experience participation) + β2 (gender) + β3 (race/ethnicity) + β4 (age) + β5 (primary disability) + β6 (MSD) + µ. Conclusions and Future Directions Do not see that SWE positively impacts outcomes given this design. Explore ways to reduce the time between SWE and post-SWE VR services. Consider other dependent variables of interest in order to better understand other ways that SWE is impacting participants beyond only successful employment outcome measures. peqatac.org  contact@peqatac.org PEQATAC – Program Evaluation and Quality Assurance Technical Assistance Center The Stout Technical Assistance Center-Program Evaluation and Quality Assurance (SVRI-PEQA) is established under a grant from the Department of Education, Rehabilitation Services Administration (RSA) award number PR#H263B150004.
