Abstract
The purpose of this study was to gather the perspectives of community partners regarding the work experiences for youth with disabilities to provide an understanding of (a) the community’s role and (b) how connections in rural communities were formed. This study provided a deeper understanding of the processes that influence the phenomenon of transition to work for rural youth with disabilities. Employing a basic qualitative research design, information was captured regarding community members’ perspectives on their roles and experience partnering with rural schools to transition youth with disabilities to work.
