A valuable resource for parents of students with disabilities

The NYS Education Dept. provides this valuable resource for our parents of students with disabilities:

ACCES-VR (Vocational Rehabilitation) assists individuals with disabilities to achieve and maintain employment and to support independent living.

Adult Career and Continuing Education Services-Vocational Rehabilitation (ACCES-VR) starts with the presumption that all individuals with disabilities can benefit from vocational rehabilitation services, and should have opportunities to work in jobs integrated within their communities. Vocational Rehabilitation Counselors guide individuals through service programs they need to reach their employment goal.

ACCES-VR assists individuals with disabilities to achieve and maintain employment and to support independent living through training, education, rehabilitation, and career development. More information
