- Abstract
The article discusses the collaborative relationships of agencies for employment of persons with disabilities in the U.S. It has been emphasized in the disability and workforce policy and legislative reforms that state agency collaboration is needed to support disabled job seekers. However, it was found that collaborative employment initiatives are hindered by systemic factors including lack of agreement about target population and the differing commitment to the goal of employment.
