Funding Information:
In 1994, the Arkansas Research and Training Center in Vocational Rehabilitation (University of Arkansas) received a Health Services Research grant from the National Multiple Sclerosis Society to develop, demonstrate, and evaluate the Career Possibilities Project. Addressing LaRocca’s (1995) call for empowerment, rights awareness, resource utilization, and community-based services as research priorities concerning MS and employment, the project targeted unemployed people with MS at four sites across the midwestern United States: Cleveland, OH; Evansville, IN; Louisville, KY; and Milwaukee, WI. The primary purpose of the study was to increase participants’ (a) placement rate, (b) job-seeking activity, cc> employability maturity, (d) optimism about re-entering the work force, and (e) career self-efficacy.
