How do I get Started?

Contact the Bureau of Rehabilitation Services (BRS) office nearest to your home to apply for services. See all our office locations.

You can also fill out the form below with your information and a counselor in your area will get back to you.


A Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) counselor will explain how our process works and answer any questions you may have. Once you make the decision to apply for services the counselor has up to 60 days to determine if you are eligible.

Please note:

You will be asked to provide information about your disability, your education and any work or volunteer opportunities you may have had. When necessary, you may be asked to participate in medical, psychiatric, psychological or other evaluations that will be paid for by BRS.

If you are younger than 18 years old, your parent or guardian will have to be involved in the process.
