Hi Ashley,

Just curious; where are you getting your advocate from? NFB? Your disability 
service office?

Hi all,

I’m having difficulty getting services from rehab. I do have an old braille 
note and I’m hoping they pay for its repair since some of the cells need 
fixing.
I’m also requesting an update to my scanning program and a vr stratus among 
other things.


Has rehab updated, repaired, or replaced your technology? Technology changes 
so often and I know of people using old computers and other technology since 
rehab did not update it; for instance they use windows xp or vista and now 
we are on windows 7, soon to be windows 8.


Also, if you looked for work, did rehab help you with job development 
activities such as job searches, interview tips, job shadowing, or setting 
up informational interviews?

If I cannot get what I need, I will go forward with getting an advocate and 
go to a mediation. If anyone has had that experience, I’m curious to know 
what that is like.

Thanks.

Ashley
