TTW Employment Network Partners

The Ticket to Work (TTW) Partnership Plus Program offers extended support services once you are successfully employed, and you and your counselor have determined that vocational rehabilitation services are no longer needed. Meet our employment network providers who can provide you with the ongoing specialized services you need to ensure your employment success!

Iowa Vocational Rehabilitation Services (IVRS) will help you prepare for and find employment. An Employment Network (EN) partner will help you stay employed.

These ENs have signed Partnership Plus agreements with IVRS.
