Current Narrative:
At this time, there is no plan to develop additional community rehabilitation programs in Wyoming. The Council and Division feel a greater need is to ensure that job coaches are qualified to provide the needed services. The Division now requires background checks for all job coaches. Training for all job coaches is being considered.
The Division will continue to monitor vocational rehabilitation services in the state and consult with the members of the Council members on future needs.
