Dina,

I have had friends who have been accepted to receive services from VR, some
of them also have families with money and businesses that didn't get in the
way of receiving VR services.  They're just interested in finding if a
person has a documented disability, which I'm sure you have.

Thanks,
Anthony

  Subject: Voc Rehab


  Hi,

  Interesting that this topic should come up right now when I have been told
to
  contact Voc Rehab in regard to maybe having them pay for schooling, and
the
  bike situation for me. I am curious. Are they income based or not? Has
anyone
  been helped by them successfully or am I wasting my time and energy
pursuing
  this avenue?
  What about Regional Center? I have had no contacts with any of these kinds
of
  organizations. I am also checking into WCIL, and a local UCP. Does anyone
  know how these places work. I am pursuing a degree in Psych. at a local
  university.

  I am also going to see if my medical insurance will pay for the bike as
well.
  I doubt it but you never know until you try. :-D
