520 |a This report provides information about special populations in Illinois as well as information about services and programs designed to serve these targeted groups. It addresses the needs, services, and resources for making vocational education programs accessible to the populations identified at both the federal and state levels for targeted emphasis. Introductory sections discuss responsibility for access, the Illinois population, and educational facilities and enrollments. Information is provided on these specific populations: economically disadvantaged; incarcerated population; minority populations; dropouts and potential dropouts; work force members needing retraining; single parents/homemakers; and disadvantaged, handicapped, and limited English speaking persons. For each population, this information is given: a description of the population in need, number served, and services provided. Results are then provided of a survey of 61 vocational education delivery system administrators and 49 community college deans that assessed their perceptions of recent events that affected access to vocational education. Respondents (85% of the individuals surveyed) gave comments and registered their ratings on Likert-type scales regarding the following developments: (1) federal funding for special populations via the Carl D. Perkins Vocational Education Act; (2) school reform initiatives, including increased high school graduation requirements; and (3) Illinois' Education for Employment Policy. A final section makes recommendations and suggests actions by the State Board of Education to continue to emphasize access of vocational education and populations, monitor the results of programs in place, and plan for the needs of future workers in Illinois. Twenty-four references are appended. (YLB)
