Are vocational rehabilitation services only for students who are in special education?
No. Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) counselors may work with all students in high school who have a disability. If you are not in special education, ask your school guidance counselor about the MRC and its services. 5. But I don’t want people to know I have a disability!! Information about you, including the fact that MRC is helping you, is kept strictly CONFIDENTIAL. Information is only shared when you give permission to your VR counselor to do so. 6. Where would I have to go for the training I need to get a job? Job training may be available on college campuses, at business and trade schools, at community rehabilitation programs, or even on the job. 7. Who will make the decisions about my VR program – me, my parents, my counselor or the school? This is my life. You will make the final decisions that fit your own career interests, choices and goals. The best situation is one in which everyone works together so when your IEP is complete, your IPE begins. An Individual Plan for Employmen
