  The general assembly hereby finds that:   Persons with developmental disabilities represent a population that has long been underutilized and often denied employment opportunities within state government, partially due to hiring personnel's perceptions and understanding of the operation and requirements of the state personnel system;    Some state agencies are unaware of the avenues that are available within the state personnel system by which state agencies can hire and provide training and support for persons with developmental disabilities; and    Many persons with developmental disabilities, when provided appropriate training and support, can develop sufficient skills and competencies to more than adequately fulfill job expectations in employment positions in state government.       Therefore, it is the intent of the general assembly to create the state employment program for persons with developmental disabilities to encourage and provide incentives for state agencies to give meaningful employment opportunities to persons with developmental disabilities and to improve the state's practices in employing, supervising, and supporting persons with developmental disabilities.
