“…In general, young people with disabilities feel less confident and less optimistic about the future than their nondisabled peers [8]. These low aspirations may be a realistic appraisal of skills and abilities or may mean that youth have prematurely or unnecessarily limited possible future opportunities [64].Occupational aspirations are also fairly stable during adolescence and serve as an important predictor of later aspirations and future career choices Thus, decisions made in emerging adulthood set the stage for adult career trajectories [19,64].…”

BACKGROUND: Young adults with disabilities in their early career years face limited access to high wage/high skill jobs, barriers in the workplace, and inadequate opportunities for career retention and advancement. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this literature review was to examine the process of career development for young adults with disabilities entering the workforce and document strategies for vocational rehabilitation counselors to facilitate career advancement. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A literature search was conducted using the online databases Academic Search Premier, ERIC, and PsychInfo. Key words for the search included the terms: disabilities, emerging adulthood, young adults, career advancement, vocational development, and early career. Articles included in this review met the following criteria: (a) published in peer reviewed journals in or after the year 2000, (b) findings addressed either processes, barriers, or strategies for emerging adults with disabilities entering the workforce. RESULTS: Major barriers to career advancement include: a) lack of work experience and restricted aspirations, b) sporadic patterns of early employment, c) limited access to postsecondary education and training, and d) discrimination and prejudice in the workforce. Strategies to enhance early career development included: a) developing individual attributes and skills, b) broadening the range of careers explored, c) creating initial work experience opportunities, d) obtaining postsecondary education/training, e) providing supports to facilitate advancement on the job, and f) advocating for changes in the workplace. CONCLUSIONS: Using an ecological framework to impact individual skills, create training opportunities, and enhance work place environments, rehabilitation counselors can help young adults with disabilities gain equal access to career options and ultimately achieve economic independence and stability.programs and improving post-school employment outcomes, young adults with disabilities in their early career years are more likely to be unemployed, underemployed, or living below the poverty line than their non-disabled peers [9,55].As young people with disabilities gain vocational skills and prepare to enter the workforce, they face an increasingly competitive labor market. In 2011, unemployment rates for young adults with disabilities ages 16 to 24 were 13 to 16% higher than for those without disabilities [9]. Individuals with disabilities are also more likely to be living in poverty and less likely to live

Stress can arise as a result of pressure or tension that comes from dissonance between a person and his environment. Stress is an adaptive response to an external situation that results in physical and psychological aberrations. The result, too much stress can threaten a person's ability to face the environment, which ultimately disrupts his daily life. For that needed a therapy that can help in reducing the impact of stress. One of the therapies that can be used is color therapy. Color therapy is one of the non-pharmacological therapy that can reduce stress. Therapy is created because it is based on the assertion that each particular color contains healing energies. The effect of color affects the work of the sympathetic nerves parasympathetic, and improves mood. Color therapy provides an element of relaxation, which from various studies of relaxation can reduce anxiety or anxiety in individuals. Keywords AbstractIn Indonesia, sending your children to daycare is not the primary choice for working parents. In most cases, the parents are still able to afford a household assistant. They may also have some family member they can ask to take care of their children. This is not the case with workers in the palm oil plantations. The palm oil companies provide children day care as part of their facility for the workers. However, the condition in the day care centers are far from meeting the standards set for the establishment of children day care centre set by the Indonesian government regulation No. 58 of 2009. Improvements are still needed, such as: more or additional facilities, trained caretakers to help the children grow and develop well -the development of the children's social and emotional aspects and the development of their psychomotor (for children aged 0-5 years old).

“…The initial mandate of this law has been in place since 1990. Since that time and earlier, researchers have monitored students' post-school outcomes to determine which strategies produce impactful and sustaining results (Lindstrom, Doren, & Miesch, 2011;Rojewsk, Lee, Gregg, & Gemic, 2012;Rusch & Braddock, 2004;Sanford et al, 2011). Unfortunately, the outcomes have continued to be less impressive compared to their peers without disabilities.…”

Although outcomes for adults with disabilities are improving, many do not have the same quality of life experienced by their peers without disabilities; they are unemployed, underemployed, have frequent job changes, and may not enjoy friendships or social interactions. To diminish the gap between students with disabilities and their non-disabled peers demands career development and transition planning from high school to post school activities. Students with support from their families, contacts, schools, and agencies can plan, prepare, and organize reasonable and efficient connections to employment, education and independent living options. This article will guide the reader through (a) the history and impact of career development, (b) a discussion about models of career development, (c) essential components and (d) how career development can be integrated into academic and community arenas. Finally, ideas for collaborative efforts that promote and enhance career development and transition are presented.
