Minn. R. agency 139, ch. 3325, VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION PROGRAM, pt. 3325.0150
Where an individual cannot take advantage of a trial work period under part 3325.0145, an extended evaluation must be conducted to determine whether there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the individual can benefit from the provision of vocational rehabilitation services in terms of employment outcome or if there is clear and convincing evidence that an individual with a disability is incapable of benefiting from services in terms of employment because of the severity of that disability.
SSB must develop a written plan for providing only those services necessary to make a determination whether or not there is clear and convincing evidence that an individual with a disability is incapable of benefiting from services in terms of employment because of the severity of that disability. Services must be provided in the most integrated setting possible, consistent with informed choice and rehabilitation needs of the individual.
Extended evaluation services must be of sufficient variety and duration to determine that:
SSB must provide supports, including rehabilitation technology and services, and personal assistance services to accommodate the rehabilitation needs of the individual during the extended evaluation.
