There are dedicated resources available to help individuals with disabilities find and maintain employment. 

Vocational Rehabilitation (Voc Rehab or VR), a division of Workforce Services, supports individuals with disabilities in obtaining competitive, integrated employment in their community.  They do this by providing professional vocational counseling and guidance.  They do this by working partnerships with employers, school districts, higher education, and other agencies.
