But, sometimes, staff needs long term blindness training which agencies may not be able to pay from their budget.
I was not talking about accommodations.
Thanks

My agency simply paid for what I needed out of their budget such as reasonable accommodations, training Etc. I think that's how it should be.

Hello fellow rehab enthusiasts,

I have heard recently of a state agency serving the blind which has a practice of not allowing employees to become clients of the agency. I am told that this is because there have been confidentiality issues in the past. To me, this seems to violate the spirit of the rehab system, so I'm wondering if anyone knows if this is allowed.

Thanks for any input anyone may have!

Aloha,
Justin
