Mission Statement
APSE: The Network
on Employment

and expand integrated employment
opportunities, services, and
outcomes for persons
experiencing disabilities.
To accomplish
this mission, APSE:
-
Provides
advocacy and education to
customers of supported
employment (SE), i.e.

professionals, consumers and
their family members, and
supported employers.
-
Addresses
issues and barriers which
impede the growth and
implementation of integrated
employment services.
-
Improves
supported employment (SE)
practice so that individuals
and communities experience
SE as a quality service with
meaningful outcomes.
-
Promotes
national, state, and local
policy development which
enhances the social and
economic inclusion and
empowerment of all persons
experiencing severe
disabilities.

experiencing severe
disabilities as fully
participating community
members.
