Question

A client cannot reliably get to work because the apartment building lacks an accessible entrance ramp. How should the counselor apply negotiation skills?

Accepted Answer

Negotiate with the landlord on ramp installation or interim access solutions that support housing stability tied to employment goals. — Sometimes the real placement barrier is the front door, not the résumé. Talking with a landlord about a ramp is still rehab negotiation—it keeps housing and work from collapsing together.

Answer

Limit negotiation to job vendors only and treat housing access as outside rehab scope.

Answer

Advise the client to quit the job until a different building becomes available years later.

Answer

File training authorizations as a substitute for addressing the physical access barrier.
