What is the primary goal of VR services?

The primary goal of VR (Vocational Rehabilitation) services is to assist individuals with disabilities in achieving and maintaining gainful employment. This focus on finding and maintaining employment reflects the overarching mission of vocational rehabilitation—facilitating the entry of individuals into the workforce and ensuring they have the necessary support to remain employed successfully.

By emphasizing this goal, VR services aim to provide clients with a variety of resources, including job training, career counseling, and job placement assistance, which are tailored to the individual's unique needs and capabilities. The outcome is to empower individuals to overcome barriers to employment, enhance their independence, and improve their quality of life through meaningful work experiences.

While personal development, vocational training, and workplace integration are important aspects of the broader rehabilitation process, they serve as components that support the ultimate objective of securing employment. Thus, finding and maintaining employment stands as the central aim of VR services.
