What is TPP?
The Department of Rehabilitation (DOR) works in partnership with students, families, schools, and other stakeholders to provide services and advocacy resulting in employment, independent living, and equality for individuals with disabilities. Consistent with this goal and with the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), DOR is prioritizing services that support student success.
DOR Student Services are available on a statewide basis to all students with disabilities, 504 Plans, and IEPs (Individualized Education Plans). Through these services and ongoing collaborations with schools, regional centers, America's Job Center of California, and business partners, the DOR seeks to maximize student success in the transition from high school to higher education, employment, independence, and economic self-sufficiency.
