Marciana is lovely.
We need to clone her.
Where did she come from and how is it that BSBP hasn't destroyed her?

>> APPLICATION FOR VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION SERVICES
>>
>> In accordance with the 1998 Amendments to the Rehabilitation Act of
>> 1973 and Public Act 260 of the State of Michigan, I am applying for
>> vocational rehabilitation services.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> ELIGIBILITY
>>
>> I understand that in order to be eligible I must have a visual
>> impairment as defined by the Michigan Bureau of Services for Blind
>> Persons (B S B P), the impairment must constitute or result in a
>> significant impediment to employment and I must need vocational
>> rehabilitation services in order to prepare for employment. It is
>> presumed that I can benefit in terms of an employment outcome as a result
>> of vocational rehabilitation services unless the B S B P can demonstrate
>> by clear and convincing evidence that I am not capable of an employment
>> outcome. This determination of eligibility will, to the extent possible,
>> be based on existing information and will be completed within 60 days,
>> unless my counselor and I mutually agree that an extension is necessary
>> due to exceptional and unforeseen circumstances beyond my control or the
>> agency's control and I sign an agreement that an extension of time is
>> warranted. The extension must be for a specific period of time.
>>
>>
>>
>> If I am eligible, an Individual Plan for Employment (I P E) will be
>> written with my direct participation. In the development of this plan I
>> will be given comprehensive information in order to assist me in making
>> appropriate choices of service with my counselor. My Counselor and I
>> will review this plan every 12 months to assess my progress towards my
>> Employment Objective. I will be included in any decisions to change this
>> plan. I will receive copies of information pertinent to my case in the
>> media I have indicated, e.g. Braille, tape, large print, computer disk,
>> or regular print.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> ORDER OF SELECTION
>>
>> Under an order of selection, I will be classified based on the
>> categories below. In the most severe category I may be eligible for all
>> appropriate paid and non-paid services. In lower categories I may only
>> be eligible for non-paid services which might include diagnostic service,
>> counseling and guidance, referral and job placement. If I am found
>> eligible for services I will be assigned to the highest possible
>> category. My category may change should my circumstances change.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> SELECTION CATEGORIES
>>
>> 1. Individuals with the most significant disabilities;
>>
>> 2. Individuals with significant disabilities;
>>
>> 3. Individuals with less significant disabilities;
>>
>> 4. Individuals with non-significant disabilities;
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> INELIGIBILITY
>>
>> If my impairment is judged to be too severe to allow me to benefit
>> from services at any time in the vocational rehabilitation process, I
>> must be allowed to undergo an extended assessment, which may last up to
>> 18 months before I may be determined ineligible. The basis for an
>> ineligibility decision will be recorded in my record and will be
>> certified by an appropriate staff person.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> CONFLICT RESOLUTION AND RIGHTS
>>
>> Most conflicts arise out of miscommunication. The following steps
>> are to assist in the resolution of the conflict:
>>
>> 1. Administrative Review - A meeting between you and your
>> counselor/teacher, his/her supervisor and an agency administrator for the
>> purpose of resolving the conflict.
>>
>> 2. Mediation Services - A meeting between you and your
>> counselor/teacher and his/her supervisor conducted by an impartial
>> professional mediator.
>>
>> 3. Fair Hearing - A hearing before an Administrative Law Judge
>> designed to settle conflicts. The Administrative Law Judge will render a
>> ruling regarding your issues. If you are not satisfied with the decision
>> of the Administrative Law Judge you may appeal this decision to the
>> Director of the Department of Labor and Economic Growth.
>>
>> 4. At no time will the above three forms of conflict resolution be
>> used to delay the scheduling of a Fair Hearing, if you choose.
>>
>> To request an Administrative Review contact the supervisor in the
>> region at 1-800-292-4200. To arrange for Mediation Services or a Fair
>> Hearing you may contact the Michigan Bureau of Services for Blind Persons
>> Hearing Coordinator at 1-800-292-4200 or by making the request by phone
>> or in writing to your Counselor/Teacher or the Hearing Coordinator. There
>> is no cost to you for these activities. However, the agency will not pay
>> the costs, if any, for an advocate or attorney.
>>
>>
>>
>> You have the right to be represented by an advocate of your choosing
>> at any time during the rehabilitation process or the conflict resolution
>> activities mentioned above. You also have the right to obtain assistance
>> through the Client Assistance Program (CAP) at any time. CAP may be
>> reached at 1-800-288-5923.
>>
>>
>> ALL SERVICES WILL BE AVAILABLE TO ME REGARDLESS OF RACE, SEX,
>> RELIGION, AGE, NATIONAL ORIGIN, COLOR, MARITAL STATUS, IMPAIRMENT OR
>> POLITICAL BELIEF.
>>
>>
>> The above information has been discussed with me and I have received
>> a copy in the media of my choice.
