[Ct-nfb] services for the blind new policy

[Nathanael T. Wales]

Tom,

 

I am saddened to hear this.  Did you appeal the decision to deny you
services on this ridiculous and condescending basis to a supervisor?

BESB has too much control over blind clients.  A few months ago I requested
assistance with independent living methods and I was told that I am not
entitled to any assistance for independence because I live with my wife who
is independent.  That agency is a joke.

Hi everyone. I wanted to let everyone on this list know that services for
the blind has a new policy that gives the vr supervisor the authority to
decide if a client desire to attend grad school is required. This new policy
begins October 1 of this year. I am unhappy with a vr supervisor being able
to decide if I the client should go to grad school. I will speak out against
this policy because I beleive a client should be the person that decides
about grad school not a vr supervisor who is not me.
