For any who may be interested, we just published our state mandated Assessment of the Disability Services System for 2017 focused on Education and Employment. We used to do this every 3 years and cover 9 areas
leading to a 400 page report. We had the code changed last year to require 2 areas a year instead of all 9 every three years. If you are interested, you can access on the Virginia State legislative website by clicking on the links below for RD 166 and RD
167. It will be posted on our website in the next couple of days. For 2018 we are focusing on Housing and Transportation.
Reports to the General Assembly Web site, the current calendar year of 2017 displays in numerical order all of the reports that have
been published -- the first page displays RD1 through RD84. If you select "Next Page" (located at the top and bottom of each page), it will take you to the next page and displays reports beginning with RD84. Scroll down until you see
RD166 or RD167, and select the link to see the Executive Summary. You may "View PDF Version" of the report by accessing
the link displayed in the upper right-hand corner of the page.
