Planning for Competitive Integrated Employment
Agency/Organization
Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS)
Description/Mission/Purpose
Michigan has a proud history of leading the country with respect to expanding community-based opportunities for people with I/DD. However, in terms of competitive integrated employment, Michigan has a lot of room for improvement. Putting forth state legislation which acts to raise expectations and enable people with I/DD to enhance their productivity and earn at least minimum wage alongside people without I/DD will allow them to become an integral part of the American workforce.
