Abstract

Some of the economic and philosophical reasons why sheltered workshops remain liabilities within the field of special education were discussed. Low wage rates, the unavailability of work, changing industrial forecasts for blue collar employment, financial dependence, tax returns, segregation, and normalization issues, along with other factors, were examined to provide support for the assertion that sheltered workshops are not providing clients with appropriate work experiences.
