- Program-Specific Requirements for Vocational Rehabilitation
The Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) Services Portion of the Unified or Combined State Plan* must include the following descriptions and estimates, as required by section 101(a) of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended by WIOA:
__________
* Sec. 102(b)(D)(iii) of WIOA
d. 2. N. i. Specify the State's Goals and Priorities for Funds Received Under Section 603 of the Rehabilitation Act for the Provision of Supported Employment Services.
Current Narrative:
Maine DVR has provided extensive training for those staff who are serving in school youth. Maine receives approximately $252,000 in Supported Employment funds each year. The set—aside for transition age youth at 50% then is quite small. Using our case management system, DVR staff will be able to continue to identify those students and adults who have significant support needs which would qualify then for supported employment funds. It should be noted that the proposed federal budget for FFY 18 does not include any title VI funds.
