Other: State Counselor-Coordinated Services
In this program, services are coordinated by a counselor employed by the New Jersey State Division of Vocational Rehabilitation Services (NJDVRS), a state-based agency that assists people with disabilities who are interested in pursuing employment.
While the participant is in inpatient rehabilitation or soon after their discharge, a member of the research team will assist them in completing the necessary documentation to apply for services from this agency.
Services for which they are eligible will be provided directly through NJDVRS.
