32 Miss. Code. R. 21-6-6.2
The intended purpose of the IPE is to document and describe the required rehabilitation services necessary for the client to prepare for, secure, retain, or regain employment. It shall be presumed that an individual can benefit in terms of a specific employment outcome through specific vocational rehabilitation services provided under the IPE, unless the Agency can demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence documented in the case file that the individual is incapable of benefiting from services in terms of a specific employment outcome due to the severity of the disability of the individual.
Each IPE shall be designed to achieve the specific employment objective chosen by the individual, consistent with his/her unique strengths, resources, priorities, concerns, abilities, capabilities, career interests, and informed choice. Clients will be active and full partners in the vocational rehabilitation process, making meaningful and informed choices during assessments for vocational rehabilitation needs and in the selection of specific employment outcomes, services needed to achieve the outcomes, entities providing such services, and the methods used to secure such services. Eligible individuals will be informed about their options for developing an IPE, including the option for the individual to develop an IPE on agency forms without assistance from anyone.
