The division operates the following programs: 

Vocational Rehabilitation(VR) is the cornerstone of the department’s efforts to help people with disabilities become gainfully employed and self-reliant. The program emphasizes individualized community-based services, integration, and consumer choice. Services may include vocational assessment; counseling and guidance; physical and mental restoration; training; rehabilitation technology; job placement; supported employment; and transition planning services for students with severe disabilities. 

The Rehabilitation Center for the Blind (RCB), located in Topeka, is a comprehensive rehabilitation program offering independent living skills training, as well as vocational assessment and technology services to help consumers identify their employment-related skills, aptitudes, and interests.  Mobile teams are used to offer specific services throughout the state. 

Kansas Seniors Achieving Independent Living (KAN-SAIL) provides independent living skills training in the home communities of older Kansans who experience blindness or visual loss. 

Rehabilitation Teaching provides communication, orientation and mobility, and daily living skills.  Through this program, rehabilitation specialists go to consumers' homes and provide training to help them adjust to blindness and to increase their independent living skills.

The Business Enterprise Program (BEP) offers persons who are legally blind the opportunity to manage food service operations, vending stands, and snack bars. BEP uses funds generated by the vending stand operations, rather than state general funds, to match federal funds.
