vocational impediment connection. Based on information provided by the

applicant, the disability presents a significant impediment to employment

due to difficulties with anxiety, self-doubt, concentrating on work

activities and staying focused on task. Has significant problems with

crowds. Stimuli that trigger physiological or psychological reactivity in

the applicant will be an impediment in the work environment. Basic work

procedures and following instructions could diminish the applicant's

effectiveness in the workplace and his ability to carry out work-related

simple questions, to request assistance, and to respond appropriately to

criticism from supervisors.

support back pay.

VOCATIONAL INFORMATION: The applicant's work history consist of

employment as a Security Dispatcher/Security Officer, Office Clerk,

Bookkeeper (see Employment Record in case file). He last worked in 2008.

The applicant does not have a resume and will have difficulties

explaining breaks in work history during an interview. He will require

assistance with pre-employment preparation, resume letter preparation,

preparation with job interviews, and assistance with seeking and gaining

employment.

EMPLOYMENT FACTORS: Strengths - the applicant's work history demonstrates strong transferrable skills working with computers. Resources - the applicant is active in therapeutic activities. Priorities - obtaining

short-term training and employment is a significant priority for this

individual. Concerns - may need to check for use of chemical substances,
