[NABS-L] Getting Acclimated to a College Campus

[Vejas Vasiliauskas]

Hi Emmie and Miso,
Miso, I'm impressed that your Disability Services helped initiate OANDM training.
My vocational rehabilitation counselor approved for me to work with my instructor from high school to orient around campus. She worked with me for 3 days before and 7 days after I first came to campus, for about 2 to 3 hours. Now that I am more used to campus this year, I will probably not be needing these services.

Did your state agency hire an O&M instructor? I'm meeting with my VR counselor soon to talk about the transition to college, but I was curious to know what you've experienced.
