Students with learning disabilities have received services in special education programs for many years. Unfortunately, many of these students continue to need services after they exit high schools. Vocational rehabilitation has begun to provide services for young adults with learning disabilities; however, there continues to be a discrepancy between the number of adults with learning disabilities who need vocational rehabilitation services and those who are receiving them. This article describes the definitions and eligibility criteria used by vocational rehabilitation agencies to serve adults with learning disabilities. By understanding the vocational rehabilitation system, teachers, it is hoped, will be better able to access these services for their students with learning disabilities.
有学习障碍的学生多年来一直在特殊教育项目中接受服务。不幸的是，这些学生中的许多人在高中毕业后仍需要服务。职业康复已开始为有学习障碍的年轻人提供服务；然而，需要职业康复服务的有学习障碍的成年人数量与正在接受此类服务的人数之间仍存在差异。本文描述了职业康复机构用于为有学习障碍的成年人提供服务的定义和资格标准。希望教师通过了解职业康复系统，能够更好地为有学习障碍的学生获得这些服务。
