Inclusive education plays an important role in facilitating positive employment outcomes for transitioning youth with intellectual disabilities: “When it comes to employment, it’s something that exists in the future. But we need to create that pathway to discover who are you as an individual and who are you as a potential employee” (Inclusive Education Teacher). In this video, people discuss the importance of employment and factors to promote successful employment outcomes for people with intellectual disabilities.
