      NH Vocational Rehabilitation (NHVR) helps people with disabilities go to work.

       

      Last year NHVR assisted 1,043 individuals with disabilities obtain and maintain employment.

       

      We are always searching for ways to improve our services.

       

      You Can Help!

       

      Each year NHVR holds public meetings across the State to gather input on how our services are working in New Hampshire.  Your thoughts are important to us.  We have several options for you to provide input.  

       

      §  You can join us at one of our scheduled meetings.
