2022 Public Forums
Once a year, the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation Services (DVRS) and the State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) host public forums to provide information on available services for individuals with disabilities and receive input from the community. This year, you can choose to join us virtually on either July 12th or July 21st.
Your input during these forums is extremely important to both DVRS and SRC and will help to mold program delivery and policy to ensure that people with disabilities receive rehabilitation services that result in employment. Representatives from the DVRS and the SRC will be available to provide information on available services and document public feedback and testimony.
Topics will include:
- Obtaining vocational services following a public health emergency
- Pros and cons of receiving virtual services
- Challenges of finding and keeping jobs during these difficult times
- Coordination and provision of Pre-Employment Transition Services (Pre-ETS)
- Service provision to individuals who have high support needs
