[Colorado-talk] Here's our chance to start the change engines in DVR

[Kevan Worley]

Thanks, Dan. I would like to echo Dan's sentiment. As you know, we have been given two unprecedented opportunities to bring reform. The interim study committee of the General Assembly brought about by the strong and fact-based advocacy of the National Federation of the Blind will begin it's deliberation on August 12. However, of equal importance are these public meetings being held by officials at the Colorado Division of Labor and Employment which will begin in Denver next Monday evening. I urge us all to discuss our thoughts and strategies for reform and bring them to the attention of CDLE and Division of Vocational Rehabilitation management. If you could RSVP, off of this list please, to Dan or myself it would be greatly appreciated. Please consider the flyer and, as they say, "let's do this". 

At Your Service,

Here's a message from the future home of DVR - the Department of Labor and Employment.  The first meeting is in the Denver ZMetro area, and others will be announced - they are already listed in the flyer below.

So get ready to come and give your input - what should DVR look like in its new home?  What is working for you, what has not worked.

The National Federation of the Blind needs to show itself and its collective strength starting next Monday.
