Information Your Rights, the Legal System, and Funding       
Funding Resources

Funding resources for college, assistive technology and other services are important to investigate. Individual agencies have specific criteria and application procedures which must be followed. Always provide the necessary requested documentation.

Frequently funding requests are denied and must be resubmitted. You should contact your local Vocational Rehabilitation office to meet with a counselor to discuss benefits for personal hearing instruments, assistive technology, college and job training as well as other potential services.
