Hawaii Department of Human Services Division of Vocational Rehabilitation “Our Vision”

Our vision at the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation is “Move Forward to Work.” We would like to think of ourselves as the agency of choice for persons with disabilities who are looking to enter or retain integrated, competitive employment. As Hawai‘i’s primary agency directly responsible for the employment needs of our citizens with disabilities, we are committed in Hawai‘i’s efforts in establishing a 21st century workforce. With service offices on Hawai‘i Island, Maui, Moloka‘i, O‘ahu and Kaua‘i the Division is entrenched within our communities to meet the needs of those seeking our services. With the passage of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) in July of 2014, the Hawai‘i VR program has been actively working with core partners from the Department of Labor and Industrial Relations, Department of Education, Department of Health, University of Hawai‘i and the Community Colleges as well as divisions within the Department of Human Services in developing the kinds of services all of Hawai‘i can be proud of.
