[nabs-l] rehab issues, anyone like to throw in some advice?

[Beth Taurasi]

Dear NABS-sters,
YEs, I'm writing you guys after so much time has passed.  I'd like to go 
back to school for computer stuff, web design and stuff, but Rehab has 
caused me to go nuts lately.  Firstly, they said I needed "extra" social 
skills training, which isn't available for adults.  I have already 
gotten training in social skills at CCB, Colorado Center for the Blind, 
but I have no idea what DVR in Colorado is trying to do now.  I have 
spoken to numerous people who said I should appeal, and so I wrote this 
letter.  If anyone wants to see it, email me privately at my personal 
email if you have it or you may email me at eataurasi at gmail.com.  Anyone 
need my number you may have it so that you can go over this with me.  I 
can do anything to get this done.  I tried the Lawyer list, but Mr. 
LaBarre said I should call the Legal Center for People with 
Disabilities, which did not even bother to help with another case I 
had.  I don't know who to talk to at the legal center, so I plan to call 
them at some point.  I want to go in front of a judge, but I don't know 
if DVR will listen.  My resolution to this problem would be that they 
just take me off the list, give me some wage compensation, and give me a 
different setn of people who can help.  Either that or I will drop the 
case and go private with services.  Anyone got any ideas?
Some things of note: They got on my case about some dress I was 
wearing.  This is the same service provider who sent me to a 
psychologist who accused me of "pretending to be Arab."  Something 
psychologists should never do is state that sort of thing about 
someone.  I'm no longer Muslim due to this, and have converted to 
Christianity along with my dressing style.  But that doesn't mean I 
dress in short short dresses.  I have a certain code I follow, and it is 
appropriate to the knowledge of CCB.  I'm not kidding.
The DVR did not even give me a chance to finish my work because "Bedbugs 
transfer," said the lady I was working with.  Here's the thing.  They 
didn't give me a written note saying what they wanted with the official 
letterhead.  That would have been beneficial though it isn't required in 
my suspicions.  Anyway, thoughts and ideas would be greatly appreciated, 
and if anyone wants to help in this thing, please email me privately at 
the addresses above.
