Funding for Innovation and Expansion Grants

Each fiscal year a portion of Nevada’s allotment of funds received under section 110 of the Rehabilitation Act are reserved to further innovation and expansion of the vocational rehabilitation programs.   The Vocational Rehabilitation Council encourages interested parties to approach it with projects for funding consideration.  Recent examples of projects funded include:  rural employment for high school students with learning disabilities; strategies to improve work efficiency and performance; media instruments (videotapes, brochures) that focus attention on the roles of people with disabilities in the community and the workforce; and training on the Workforce Investment Act and the Rehabilitation Act Amendments of 1998.
