California Department of Rehabilitation

The California Department of Rehabilitation (DOR) is an employment and independent living resource for people with disabilities. DOR is the largest vocational rehabilitation provider in the United States. We serve individuals with significant physical and mental disabilities. Services are designed to help job-seekers with disabilities obtain competitive employment in integrated work settings. At DOR, we know that with guidance and support, individuals with disabilities can be fully integrated and highly productive community members, employees and colleagues. Our program participants are expected to be available, responsible, active, and dedicated contributors to their own success. The DOR also funds, administers, and supports 28 non-profit Independent Living Centers (ILCs) in communities throughout California. Each ILC provides services necessary to assist over 22,000 consumers annually to live independently and be productive in their community.
