This paper reviews key strategies for implementing evidence-based supported employment statewide. The Johnson & Johnson-Dartmouth Community Mental Health Program collaborates with 9 states and the District of Columbia to implement supported employment in a sustainable way. Technical assistance and teambased training help agencies develop high fidelity programs that result in good employment outcomes for people with severe mental illness.
