Vocational Rehabilitation

Vocational Rehab helps people with disabilities address their unique barriers and achieve employment. Our goal is to assist people with disabilities in building careers that have value and lead to greater independence by providing them with the tools and support they need. We also work with employers, schools and other organizations to help people with disabilities get hired and succeed. Additionally, we train Utah businesses in how to effectively hire and accommodate people with disabilities, creating an environment where everyone thrives.

DSPD requires that you be presented with this as an option and once you have heard what's available you can choose whether or not it is something you want or if you want to opt out.
