For five years, TACQE partnered with vocational rehabilitation (VR) professionals to open doors to quality employment for people with disabilities. Together, we built tools, trainings, and strategies that help people not only get jobs—but keep them, grow in them, and thrive.

The project ends on September 30, 2025, but the resources remain. This Legacy Toolkit is your one-stop guide to the lessons and practices that last, so you can keep moving the work forward.

Core Lessons

TACQE’s work was guided by five simple truths: use what works, stay grounded in local needs, work together, make research usable, and keep learning. These lessons are as relevant today as they were when we began, and they’ll keep shaping stronger services tomorrow.
