Outplacement in the public sector.
The authors' reviewed their experience with a formalized outplacement project used in New York State during 1984 to preserve continuity of employment for those affected by staff reductions in state MR facilities. Mr. Torino's perspective is agencywide, reflecting his responsibility for manpower management throughout New York State's 20 MR/DD facilities. Mr. Whitehead's experience was based on his work at one of the centers involved, Craig developmental--a hundred-year-old, rural facility, serving a five-county region south of Rochester. The paper was presented at the 1984 AMHA annual meeting in Chicago.
