Abstract
Handicapped youth and adults still encounter serious problems assimilating successfully into today's rapidly changing society. After tracing the major events that have increased the momentum of career education for persons with handicaps, Brolin and Gysbers advocate a life‐centered curriculum approach, which focuses on 22 skills essential for successful community living and working.

The article includes examples of successfully operating career education programs and concludes with a challenge to the profession.
