Mission Statement

The Wyoming State Rehabilitation Council’s mission is to review, analyze, and advise the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation in the delivery of effective rehabilitation services which lead to employment and the independence of Wyoming’s citizens with disabilities.

The SRC meets via videoconferencing with one in-person/hybrid meeting annually with the State Independent Living Council. The subcommittees meet on alternating months to address assigned work and report back to the full Council in scheduled sessions.

We are currently seeking members from Wyoming communities to join the State Rehabilitation Council.
