Why was this site developed?
The purpose of this site is twofold. First, to disseminate quality training resources over the Internet to professionals who work in vocational rehabilitation settings. Second, to advertise the manual from which all of this valuable information came. The curriculum, Life Skills for Vocational Success, was developed through a grant from the Alabama Department of Rehabilitation Services. The grant was obtained by Jim Crim, Executive Director of Workshops, Inc., and Milton Moats, Facility Coordinator for the Alabama Department of Rehabilitation Services. Bart Trench was hired to write the manual in September, 1997. With the assistance of many people, the manual was completed on June 1, 1998.

If you would like all of the materials contained in the manual (all of the information could not be included on the Internet) and save some ink in your printer cartridge, manuals can be purchased at the low price of $35.
