The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
(a) That an essential component of transition services developed and supported by the State Department of Education is project workability.
(b) That the workability program provides instruction and experiences that reinforce core curriculum concepts and skills leading to gainful employment.
(c) That since project workability was established by the State Department of Education in 1981, substantial numbers of individuals with exceptional needs have obtained full- or part-time employment.
(d) That project workability is a true partnership established at the state level through nonfinancial interagency agreements between the State Department of Education, the Department of Employment Development, and the Department of Rehabilitation, and has elevated awareness in the private sector of the employment potential of individuals with exceptional needs, and focuses its efforts in developing careers for these youth, and preventing needless economic and social dependency on state and community agencies and resources.
(e) That local education agencies in California establish linkage between agencies, eliminate duplication of effort, and develop precedent-setting employment training practices which should be preserved and advanced to better assure future productive employable citizens.
(Added by Stats. 1987, Ch. 1484, Sec. 9.)
