[Mt-blind] FW: Blind Low Vision Services Public Hearing - March 28

[Jim Marks]

Please consider attending and testifying at the public hearing for Montana
Blind Low Vision Services and other VR and IL services.  Things to consider
include continued support for the MT Business Enterprises, services for
older blind Montanans, improved technology supports, or anything else
relevant to blind Montanans.  The Montana Association for the Blind often
dominates these hearings, and it's vital we continue showing up and speaking
up.  Thanks!

The Montana Vocational Rehabilitation (MVR) Program and the Montana
Statewide Independent Living Council (SILC) will hold a public hearing to
seek your input regarding vocational rehabilitation and independent living
services provided to Montanans with disabilities, and to assist in the
development of the MVR and SILC State Plans. The comments will help both
programs evaluate their services in an effort to best meet the needs of
their consumers.

MVR and SILC are especially interested in hearing your input on the issues
that we have attached. Please know that any and all comments are helpful,
and do not feel that you need to address only these issues. 

If you wish to comment on these programs and can't attend the hearing, you
can submit written comments. The deadline for written comments is April 10,
2007, and they will be given the same weight as comments made in person.
Please submit written comments to: Barbara Varnum, PO Box 4210, Helena, MT
59604.
