Coordination of Vocational Rehabilitation Services Sample Clauses

Coordination of Vocational Rehabilitation Services. ‌ (The Rehabilitation Act, Section 101(a)(11)(D)) To improve the coordination of transition services between education and VR and in recognition that each DOR district and Special Education Local Plan Areas (SELPA) with the corresponding county office of education and the LEAs may have unique operational and staffing characteristics, local agencies will work together to develop the policies and/or procedures outlined in Appendix A section Coordination of Vocational Rehabilitation Services to ensure a seamless referral process for students who may need DOR services. The Rehabilitation Act, as amended by WIOA, mandates a streamlined approach to determining eligibility for services and for planning purposes in developing the IPE. The amendments, in an effort to reduce barriers to consumers and to more effectively use limited resources, call for the use of existing data and information about a student’s disability, interests, aptitudes, academic performance, and needs. To determine eligibility and interests, the DOR shall use acceptable, existing information from other agencies, particularly from the LEAs, to document the presence of a physical or mental impairment (The Rehabilitation Act, Section 102(a)(4)). Documentation that a student has a physical or mental disability may be obtained by verification that any other agency has determined based on an assessment by a qualified professional, that the student has a disability. This includes public or private agencies, which receive public funds specifically for providing services to individuals with verified disabilities. In keeping with the spirit and intent of and consistent with the Rehabilitation Act amended by WIOA, joint sharing and use of evaluations and assessments will occur between the agencies to reduce the duplication of multiple assessments for rehabilitation services eligibility and for the planning and developing of the IPE (The Rehabilitation Act, Section 102(a)(4)).
