If you’re at the State Fair over Labor Day weekend, stop by the Minnesota Council for Disability booth in the Education Building to learn about what DEED’s Vocational Rehabilitation Services (VRS) has to offer! VRS serves Minnesotans with disabilities around the state so they can join the workforce and find fulfilling careers. A counselor works closely with each participant to draft a personalized plan for getting a first job, obtaining training or making a career move. Services may also include assistive technology, workplace accommodations, coaching or on-the-job experiences. See you at the Great Minnesota Get-Together!
