Capella, Michele E.; Turner, Ronna C. – Rehabilitation Counseling Bulletin, 2004
Although state agencies are required by law to assess their consumers' satisfaction with vocational rehabilitation (VR), each state uses its own instrument to measure satisfaction. This not only makes comparisons across states impossible but also means that the quality of these instruments varies widely from state to state. As with other…
