The 2017 Wisconsin Act 178 requires the Department of Health Services (DHS), Department of Public Instruction (DPI), and Department of Workforce Development (DWD) to coordinate services that ensure individuals with disabilities have access to competitive integrated employment opportunities.
Competitive integrated employment (CIE) is work in which an individual with a disability is paid no less than the customary rate earned by other employees performing similar work in an environment where they regularly interact with people both with and without disabilities and have access to the same benefits and advancement opportunities as their peers without disabilities.
Comments and questions about the plan may be directed to: DWDCIEPublicComment@dwd.wisconsin.gov.
