Understanding the Differences Between IRTs and Interagency Committees in Disability Employment

This training session clarifies common misconceptions about Integrated Resource Teams (IRTs) and Interagency Committees within the Disability Employment Initiative (DEI). While both aim to enhance employment opportunities for individuals with disabilities, they operate differently. IRTs take a hands-on, tailored approach to meet individual needs at the local level, whereas Interagency Committees focus on broad systemic solutions to improve policies and interagency processes. Join us to learn more about their distinct roles and how they contribute to better employment outcomes.

  2. An Integrated Resource Team (IRT) and an Interagency Committee are practically the same thing. I have no idea why the DEI national technical assistance provider is always yammering on about the differences between the two. They both work to increase access to employment opportunities and employment outcomes for people with disabilities. We might as well just call Interagency Committees IRTs. True, they are the same thing. False, they are NOT the same.

  3. Not Quite… While it is true that Integrated Resource Teams (IRTs) and Interagency Committees both work to increase access to employment opportunities and employment outcomes for people with disabilities, they are definitely not the same.

  4. CORRECT!!! An Integrated Resource Team (IRT) takes a tailored approach, bringing together a wide range of representatives as appropriate at the local One-Stop community level, to improve coordination of services and supports to an individual customer with a disability. Whereas… An Interagency Committee works to identify solutions at a systems level in order to impact policy changes, improve interagency referral processes, and/or work together towards an annual event, such as a Job Fair or Employer Forum. • For more information check out DEI Myth #5.
