Vocational Rehabilitation

Vocational Rehabilitation (Voc Rehab/VR), a division within North Carolina’s Department of Health and Human Services,  helps people with disabilities achieve their goals for employment and greater independence. If you have a disability and want to find a job, keep working or advance professionally, VR can help you chart your path to a career with a future. VR can provide counseling, education, training, job placement assistance, assistive technology and many other services, depending on what you need to meet your goals for competitive, integrated employment.

VR empowers young people with disabilities to explore career options…set goals for their future….and overcome challenges they may face along the way.  It’s about making the transition from high school to the world of work.  VR offers two programs: Pre-ETS—or Pre-Employment Transition Services– and Individualized VR with Transition Services.
