| Purpose of the meeting NOTICE OF VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION PUBLIC COMMENT FORUM Wednesday, March 12, 2008 6:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. Room 2000, City Hall 301 King Street, Alexandria, VA The Virginia Department of Rehabilitative Services (DRS), the Alexandria Commission on People with Disabilities, and the Virginia State Rehabilitation Council invite your attendance at a Public Forum to receive comment on DRS’ Vocational Rehabilitation and Supported Employment Programs. Each year, DRS (and all other states) prepares a State Plan that describes how Virginia provides rehabilitation services. The comments received during the public forum will be utilized in the development of the 2009 State Plan. The State Plan has two parts: the basic legal requirements about how states should operate VR programs and the Attachments which give more detail about how each state carries out the law. The State Plan is updated annually and must be submitted to the federal government by July 1 of each year. You may review the current State Plan by visiting the DRS website at www.vadrs.org or the State Rehabilitation Council website at www.va-src.org. If you cannot attend the forum in person, you may send your written comments to: Elizabeth E.
