Rules Advisory Council

We are looking for new members!

The Rules Advisory Committee (RAC) advises VR on how its rules affect people with disabilities who want to seek or maintain employment or advance in their careers. The committee typically meets monthly for about an hour to review proposed changes to the administrative rules that govern VR.

State Rehabilitation Council

The Oregon State Rehabilitation Council (SRC) is a partner to VR. The council listens to VR participants about their VR experience and works with VR to improve employment services.

Client listening sessions

The SRC hosts quarterly listening sessions for clients and their families and advocates to share their experiences about working with VR. This feedback helps the SRC make program recommendations to VR leadership. The SRC does not share names or contact information of meeting participants unless the participant requests it.
