It is also to adopt in rule policies in the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation’s Operational Policies and Procedures for DVR Counselors (Counselor Policy Manual), as is required by Section 120.54, F.S., and authorized by Section 413.22, F.S.

SUMMARY:

These rules concern the Division’s determination of the eligibility of persons with disabilities for vocational rehabilitation services and providing such persons with those services necessary for the achievement of an employment outcome, consistent with their strengths, resources, priorities, concerns, abilities, capabilities, interests and informed choice. These rules reflect public comment received in the course of six public workshops held throughout the state (and from Disability Rights Florida, as well) in 2010.
