Asians with Disabilities Outreach Project Think-Tank
 

Today hundreds of Asians Americans with disabilities (AAWDs) are living in the Chicago area who are qualified to work but unable to find employment because of a simple problem: They have no idea where to go for job services or support. Researchers know that a major factor in this real-life scenario is that vocational rehabilitation (VR) and community-service providers are not aware of the VR needs of AAWDs and how to reach out to them (Hasnain & Leung, 2010). However, thanks to ongoing funding for a grassroots, systems-change outreach project, there is an opportunity to address this situation.

 

The project called ADOPT—Asians with Disabilities Outreach Project Think-Tank—was designed to help VR agencies increase their capacity to help Chicago-based AAWDs gain meaningful access to the state VR system and to increase quality of service through culturally and linguistically relevant outreach efforts. Funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009, the project was awarded to the Center for Capacity Building on Minorities with Disabilities Research at University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC), which is collaborating with the Division of Rehabilitation Services (DRS) of the Illinois Human Services Department (DHS) and many local Asian-serving agencies, businesses, and groups.
