“…The findings indicate the existence of gender, and race/ethnicity disparities in VR service outcomes for transition-aged youth with disabilities, which is consistent with the previous findings of such disparities in VR services and outcomes across age groups and disability types (Cardoso et al, 2007;Delman, 2019;Dutta et al, 2008). VR agencies should promote service equity to benefit clients from diverse cultural backgrounds, potentially through improving VR counselors' multicultural competency.…”

Objective:The purpose of this study was to provide an overview of the current literature regarding the vocational rehabilitation services found effective in promoting employment among transition-age youth with disabilities as well as identifying factors affecting the effectiveness of those services.Methods:This study utilized the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines to theoretically and methodologically ground the systematic review. Through a three-stage filtering process, 35 studies were identified that helped identify common and effective vocational rehabilitation services for transition-aged youth.Findings:Three major themes were observed in the review of literature: validated vocational rehabilitation services, vocational rehabilitation counselor factors, and demographic variables.Conclusions:Additional research is needed in the role of disability severity as a variable of successful service provision. Further identifying successful vocational services for varying levels of disability severity will provide vocational rehabilitation consumers with more individualized options and has the potential to increase positive case closure rates. Lastly, research indicated a need for continued training of VR counselors to ensure they are meeting the needs of their consumers.

Rehabilitation counselor education must provide students with effective multicultural training to ensure optimal consumer outcomes at different levels; however, the current focus on multicultural competencies is not enough to prepare students to meet the needs of individuals with multiple marginalized identities. Issues related to power, oppression, and privilege need to be addressed through an intersectional decolonization lens. Thus, the article aims to examine current rehabilitation literature and incorporate cultural humility, intersectionality, and decolonization into multicultural training in the rehabilitation field with a multilevel approach. Recommendations are provided at department and program, and individual levels.
