Project E3 in Kentucky

In Kentucky, the University of Kentucky’s Human Development Institute (HDI) will work with transition aged youth and adults with mental illness toward improving access to vocational rehabilitation services within economically disadvantaged rural and remote communities. The Project E3 Team will provide intensive and focused technical assistance to all 80 State-Federal Vocational Rehabilitation agencies and 20 targeted communities across the U.S. and its territories.

E3TC Region 1 includes Rockcastle and Wayne Counties. Region 2 includes Breathitt, Jackson and Lee Counties.

The anticipated outcome will increase vocational rehabilitation participation of persons with disabilities from these targeted communities leading to greater quality employment outcomes.
