Project Description

Summary:

The RRTC on Employment for People with Physical Disabilities is a training grant that includes four separate projects focusing on issues related to employment for those with physical disabilities. The Parkinson's Intervening Early Concerning Employment (PIECE) study aims to learn about how people with Parkinson's disease address employment challenges over time, and what resources they use to help them address these issues. The PIECE needs assessment consisted of a review of the online resources related to Parkinson's and employment, as well as a series of stakeholder discussion panels among two groups of people with Parkinson's, and one group of interdisciplinary clinicians with expertise in Parkinson's and/or employment.
