Subjects in this condition will receive services from a 1.5 FTE IPS-SE team that will work to provide one-on-one person-centered services to help obtain employment, including but not limited to career profiling, resume assistance, job placement, training and other activities.
Group II: Treatment as usualActive Control1 Intervention
Treatment as usual, with respect to employment, for individuals on probation typically entails the probation officer informing the probationer that probationer is responsible for obtaining employment or could entail a referral from a probation officer to an employment or job assistance service, such as vocational rehabilitation. The probationer is responsible for follow up with that service.
