[nabs-l] What do you want to hear during a vocational rehabilitation call? The Membership Committee wants to hear from you!

Hello,
I think the last thing, how to get things without using rehab would be 
awesome. Also, how to pay for a masters program through rehab would be nice.
Thanks,

The NABS Membership Committee is planning to host a call about
vocational rehab in the coming months.

We have done a rehab call in the past, but students come and go, and
we feel that another call could be beneficial. However, there are many
facets to vocational rehab, so the call could take several directions.
To provide the most relevant and useful call for you, we want to know
what you want to know about rehab. Some ideas include:

• Justifying going to an NFB training center
• Effective ways to work with your counselor and information about
typical rehab policies and how to navigate bureaucracy
• Ways to advocate for yourself, what you can do if you feel that your
voice isn’t being heard, etc.

Or, we could take a different turn and do a call about how to not rely
on voc rehab and other ways you can achieve the same services they
provide in order to receive those services in the manner you prefer.

So please send your feedback. From the responses, we will gage what
the majority want to hear, and then we can begin planning by locating
experts on whatever topic you choose.

Thank you, and happy brainstorming!
