What vocational training is available after a disease, disability or disorder?
Vocational rehabilitation services may be an option to assist people following an injury. The types of services provided include funding for modifications and equipment to accommodate the disability, vocational evaluation, counseling and guidance, vocational skills training, job placement assistance, and tuition assistance. A representative of the department of vocational rehabilitation services can be located within your area. Vocational assistance is determined case-by-case based on meeting eligibility criteria. Individuals who have physical or mental disability that results in an impediment to employment and who require vocational rehabilitation services to gain employment are eligible to receive services.
