Re: [QUAD-L] Getting vans bought by DR

The catch is...... it takes justification, time, patience, hard work ans a solid Business Plan. All of wich you have or can get!!   You do have to go thru the "Division of Vocational Rehabilitation" because they also have funding resourses for things like hand controls,  power lifts and anything you can think of that you need in order to get back to work. There's the fun part.....   :-)  ....   Use your imagination and come up with a solid plan. Remember the goal is, Driving Independently to Work. So plan accordingly. For a business Plan ask yourself what am I good at, that makes me happy?   What im trying to say is, have DVR help yo start up your own MOBILE Business or find a job that you need to drive to. Use all thats availible, SSA, DVR.....The Pass Plan, Ticket to Work, IRWE's (Income Related Work Expenses)......ect.   The Pass plan is funding my van with monthly payments from my SSI check  and DVR is funding the conversions.   Hope this helps.....Bob   ----- Original Message ----- From: Stacy Harim To: Quad-List Sent: Wednesday, August 04, 2004 11:21 PM Subject: [QUAD-L] Getting vans bought by DR How in the hell are some of you getting DR to pay for vans.?  There is no way I can get them to pay for any kind of vehicle modifications to a van that is more than 4 years old and more than 40,000 miles.  I brought up that a couple of people got DR in their state to pay for the vans (DR is federal) and they have no idea what I am talking about except for they they say that they don't know how that was done since DR is federal.
