| Dave Quisenberry, Director
The Alaska Division of Vocational Rehabilitation is a combined federal/state
program under the authority of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended.
Its mission is to assist individuals with disabilities overcome barriers
to employment, independence, and community life. Various services are
provided to accomplish each client's individualized goals, including
a full array of vocational rehabilitation services, supported employment,
and assistive technology. In partnership with private sector vendors,
nonprofit rehabilitation organizations, and other state agencies, the
division helps individuals realize their potential to achieve vocational
and personal independence. When individuals with disabilities return
to work, state, federal, and local governments benefit. In addition
to bringing in tax dollars, these individuals are able to contribute
their time and talents as full participants in the community. Employers
also benefit from a ready source of trained and willing workers who,
in turn, support local communities providing vocational rehabilitation
services.
