SPEECH:
Vocational Rehabilitation, or VR, recently celebrated its 100th anniversary. Are you curious who contacts VR, who receives services, or who is on the waiting list? Great! Because here at the National Deaf Center, we just published a report showing the latest data.
DESCRIPTION:
An image of a booklet appears in the left upper corner. The booklet bears the title “Deaf People and Vocational Rehabilitation: Who is Being Served?” Around the title inside green bubbles are icons of various people representing a variety of jobs and identities. The NDC logo is at the bottom of the booklet.
SPEECH:
The findings show that over 94,000 deaf people contacted or received services from VR. Most of them were white and very few were deafdisabled people. A greater percentage of deaf people who have applied for VR services have been placed on waiting lists than those in other disability groups.
