DARS executes its vocational rehabilitation services through local service providers. There are 85 community rehabilitation programs throughout the state of Virginia who are approved to provide an array of employment-related services to individuals with disabilities.
- The Provider Directory offers a search capability for organizations across the state.
- The Employment Service Organization Scorecard [xls] demonstrates the effectiveness of each of our approved vendors and who they serve.
Become a Provider
DARS hosts quarterly New Provider Workshops for organizations that are interested in partnering with the Division of Rehabilitative Services to provide supported employment services for eligible individuals.
Attendance is step one in the process of becoming a provider: orientation participation is required prior to submitting a vendor application.
At the workshop, we will guide you through application best practices. A physical copy of the vendor application must be submitted to DARS.
Preparing for the Workshop
It is highly recommended that the DARS website be reviewed for more information prior to participating in the orientation process.
It is also recommended that research be completed on:
- The types of services that the Agency provides
- CARF requirements
- Employment Service Organization (ESO) Scorecards
- LTESS, Medicaid Waiver
- Service Needs of the Agency, to determine your organization’s uniqueness.
