To Do
Notify Office Director and Program Director for Evaluation and Community Integration when discussing an AbilityOne site with a client, when a referral is made, and when an assessment is necessary. These notification requirements also apply to positions at locations where integration is questioned such as a business developed for the sole purpose of hiring people with disabilities as well as supported self-employment cases where CIE is unclear. Notification requirements also extend to the Program Specialist for Self-Employment for any such case.
Team Communication
Discuss in team meeting.
