Rehabilitation Services (MRS) has one or more rehabilitation
counselors at every Michigan Works! Service Center in the
state.
The
Michigan Works! Service Centers
hold a number of advantages for people with disabilities.
These include:
- Easy access to
a variety of service agencies in a barrier-free building
- The potential
for appointments with two or more agencies on the same day
to save time and transportation costs
- Opportunities
for cooperative planning by the personnel of several
agencies
- The expansion
of job placement resources
The presence of
Michigan Rehabilitation Services at Michigan Works! Service Centers
serves to heighten the disability knowledge and sensitivity of
partner agencies. MRS staff also advocate for barrier-free
facilities, reasonable accommodations, and architectural
standards for individual offices that ensure customer
confidentiality.
Michigan
Rehabilitation Services believes dialogue is the key to the
success of Michigan Works! Service Centers. Partners need to
minimize turf issues and ensure customer service and,
ultimately, customer satisfaction.
Michigan Works!
Service Centers must be accessible, user friendly, and bring
about a positive result for the customer: A good job with
benefits.
