Rehabilitation Services Commission Administrator Michael Rench is
embarking on a 12-city road trip to gather ideas from you and fellow
community members. Come share your experiences and situations during
inviting café-style chats.

Your voice will be heard!

You and other guests will gather in small groups to share thoughts on
issues that are genuinely important to your lives, work experiences and
communities. Your ideas will be used to shape future state services such
as employment, vocational rehabilitation, transition youth and
independent living. 

Don't miss this opportunity to help shape the future! Everyone's voice
will be heard.
