Hello, my name is Rasha Shalaby. I'm a vocational counselor.
What is vocational rehabilitation?
Vocational rehabilitation helps people with disabilities get ready for work, find a job and keep it. Every state has a public program, and many local groups offer these services too.
A counselor usually talks with you about your interests, skills and the work you want. Together, you often write a plan with a job goal and the steps to reach it. Services might include job training, help with resumes and interviews, tools that make work easier, or a job coach.
Call the office if you have questions about your visit or your service. This is general information, not personal instructions. Your counselor can explain what applies to you.
Thanks for watching.
