Michigan Bureau Services for Blind Persons (BSBP)

 

Dear Mr. Rodgers,

 

I point your attention to the following from BSBP’s FY 15 State Plan Supplement which I just received today:

 

 

“The Bureau has established an agreement with the Veterans Administration Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment (VA-VRE) to provide vocational services to veterans. The emphasis in the agreement is to provide services to veterans that are returning from the current conflicts. The agreement outlines the referral process and the vocational and job placement services that are available through the Bureau. 

“

 

Now I am requesting in accessible format the above referenced agreement.

 

Given the national scandals related to Veterans Services including the fact that Blinded Veterans cannot access their own records and the fact those services in documented fashion are not Section 508 let alone 504 compliant I think they could use the good example of BSBP in supplying me, in accessible format said agreement referenced above.

 

So I thank you in advance for your prompt and accessible and accountable response to this matter.

 

Sincerely,

 

Paul Joseph Harcz, Jr.
