The Seneca Nation Vocational Rehabilitation Program provides culturally appropriate services that will empower individuals with disabilities to achieve maximum employability, economic independence and integration in the work place and community. If you are enrolled member of a federally or state recognized tribe, reside on Seneca territory or are within a 20-mile radius and have a documented disability you qualify for our program.
Are you currently employed (and have a documented disability) and find it hard to do your current job because of your disability? We can assist you in getting any assistive technology to make your job easier.
Do you have a job that requires you to be on your feet for most of your day and find it getting difficult to continue working? We can assist you in searching and provide paid training for a desk job that will alleviate standing most of the day.
We also provide transition services for youth age 14-24 who have a disability and need assistance to move from school to work. All services are directed toward assisting you to reach an employment goal based on your individual needs.
