ABSTRACT
This chapter presents rehabilitation administrators with an approach to managing their programmes that will lead to greater community support and increased resources to use on behalf of clients. Regular and vocational curriculum are provided. Approximately 230 students attend school regularly. Efforts are made to mainstream them into public schools when they are able. The rehabilitation programme annually serves over 500 youth and adults with all varieties of disabilities. Work evaluation, training and job placement are the primary services. Efficiency may not be the means to survival for such programmes. A sensitive management system, rather than an efficient one in economical terms, seems mandatory. Managers must use this sensitivity to cultivate support among external groups. The private, for-profit sector has developed a sophisticated approach to enable an organization to define its mission in terms of the needs of consumers who buy its goods or services.
