Is LWSB your state center?

Chris

Merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous new year!

They're part of the state.
I will say this, since you brought up Vocational Rehab.
When I still had them, they were the ones that forced me to
attend LWSB.
I wonder what the DSB would think about funding me, if I wanted
to go to LCB.
Blessings, Joshua

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

Joshua,
I'm confused.  You met at your college or were supposed to.  But
is this
counselor your disability counselor from school or the state
agency?
If you mean the vr agency, I sympathize with you because I don't
get much
from my counselor either.  All of them are horrible about
communication.

All of the DSB people have been this way.
I'm tired of dealing with them!

Hi, it's Joshua Lester.
I'm tired of these slow DSB people!
I went to the college, to meet Ms Audrey, (my counselor,) but
she
didn't show up!
She called us, at the last minute, and told us that she went to
the
campus, 30 miles away.
She Googled our college, and only saw that one, and said she
never
thought that they'd have a campus so close to it.
The woman also misunderstood what we said, but instead of
calling
our
cell phone, she called our home phone.
She thought we said to meet us at the "Community," center.
She was supposed to meet us at the student center.
She should have called our cell, so we could clear it up.
Anyway, we're about to have her E-mail the staff members, that
she
needed to meet with.
On another note, I have my Spring schedule.
I have a monday, and wednesday class, from 6:30/9:20, wich will
keep
me out of church.
This has been a bad day!
Blessings, Joshua
