Summary

This study aimed to create and test a career counseling program called Purposeful Pathways for veterans with psychiatric disorders who were unemployed or underemployed. Researchers worked with 67 veterans to design the program and then tested it in a small pilot study to see if it was acceptable and helpful. The goal was to improve job fit and long-term career success, not to cure any medical condition.
