Our vocational rehabilitation services are based on person-centered practices, which means that each individual has agency in the direction of their services with the advice and support of the rehab team.

Upon admission, each individual participates in a vocational evaluation. This is a 20-working-day process designed to help the individual identify their interests, strengths, and areas of growth. Once the evaluation period is completed, the individual will be assigned a program specialist to support them in creating goals to guide their vocational development.

Vocational goals can range widely depending on the needs of the individual.
