[nabs-l] DSB meeting, a waste of time!

[Ashley Bramlett]

so DSB is part of your colleges's DSS then. They can be slow. Just stay on 
them and advocate

I didn't have issues with VR, because I didn't use them much.
I only used the Division of Services for the Blind, from the
Department of Social Services.
The VR Counselor retired, and now we don't have VR in my state.
The Department of Services for the Blind, (of the DSS,) is very slow
in getting the adequate help that I need.
They won't even supply the things I need in class.
These are the people I've been complaining about on this list, for months!
Blessings, Joshua
