32 Miss. Code. R. 21-6-6.8

Current through December 10, 2024
Section 32-21-6-6.8 - Conclusion

The Individualized Plan for Employment should include the appropriate outcomes and services necessary to achieve the individual's specific chosen employment outcome. Outcomes and services should be consistent with the client's unique strengths, resources, priorities, concerns, abilities, capabilities, career interests, and informed choice. No service(s) that is a part of the client's IPE should be initiated until the plan has been finalized and signed by the client and counselor.

Each IPE should include time frames for employment outcome completion and service initiation. Additionally, the IPE should include use of all available comparable benefits. Even with careful evaluation and planning, circumstances may occur which precipitate a need for additional outcomes, evaluation criteria, or services. In such cases, a plan amendment should be considered.

A qualified rehabilitation counselor shall furnish a copy of the IPE and plan amendments to the individual with a disability or, as appropriate, a parent, other family member, guardian, advocate, or other authorized representative of the individual.

The counselor and client or, as appropriate, the client's representative shall review the IPE at least annually.
