I think one of the major things is the essential skills component. Then you have to have a long enough period so that there can be time to identify accommodations that are going to be needed in the workplace. Then there's having effective job development. Most of our clients don't find jobs on their own. We have to do some direct intervention. You have to be able to have adequate funding for job development and you need really strong post-hiring support. I think, especially when you're looking at youth, that you should have the longer essential skills program where you can deal with things like whether their medications are proper, or whether they need to address hygiene. We have a lot of very difficult clients and we often have to deal with appropriate behaviours in school. That's why the practice terms were so good, because it was a three-month intervention where they could be in a non-threatening work environment where we could address all of the issues.
I think you have to look at a combination. Those programs work well for our clients. I'm not sure about everybody, but then, when the client moves to employment, we already have an accommodation plan, so we know what they need when they get there and we can negotiate that with the employer.
