If you are eligible for VR services, you will work with a BRS counselor to develop an Individualized Plan for Employment (IPE). Your Employment Plan is an outline of the services that BRS will provide to you and includes important information about how we will work together to get you on the career path you want.
You may be eligible for the Level Up Program if you are:
