Abstract
The Individual Career Account was created as a grant-funded demonstration project in New Hampshire to develop a mechanism for greater individual choice and control over vocational service planning and services. The components of the demonstration included person-centered planning, individualized budgeting, and benefits counseling. This article describes these components and offers individual examples of their utilization by persons with psychiatric disabilities seeking to enter employment. Participant perspectives on choice and control and implications for the design of disability services are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
