FAQs

Your path to employment starts with the right answers.

Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) is a federal-state program that helps people who have physical or mental disabilities get or keep a job. VR is committed to helping people with disabilities find meaningful careers.

Empowerment Advocacy Group is a referral-based agency. To receive our services, you must have an open case with a State Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) agency, such as Michigan Rehabilitation Services (MRS) or the Bureau of Services for Blind Persons (BSBP).

You can tell your VR counselor you’d like to receive services from Empowerment Advocacy Group through your right to informed choice. Your counselor will then submit a referral to us. Once referred, we’ll work closely with you to support your employment journey.
While the classroom setting is great for dialogue and building community, support group and lasting relationships, we are a person-centered service. If you desire a more intimate setting, that is available upon request.

Once you have completed a service offered by EAG and we have determined along with you and your counselor that additional services are needed, we will work with the VR office to get more services offered.
