I've done the intake already. My first appointment is coming up in 2 days, and my DVR counselor is going to want to discuss what I want, why I'm there, and what I expect the DVR to do for me. I am mostly unprepared for this. I have no idea what kind of job I want, but my preference is training in a career of some sort. For the record, I am currently on SSI (disability) indefinitely, and that may factor into things. My goal is to get off disability and work a career.

I was sent a booklet in the mail, and read through it and it seems that the DVR is very flexible about helping people get through college (financial aid will be my responsibility, I think) if college is a part of their career goal.

I would like any information you can give me about your experience with the DVR - positive or negative. And sharing your personal story would be a big plus!

I am beginning to note my preferences/likes/dislikes/abilities in a journal to help give my counselor a better idea of who I am and what I may do best at.

Thanks for any responses, I need all the information I can get. Very nervous and wanting to be as helpful as possible.
