DRC Programs
CLIENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (CAP)
The purpose of CAP is to protect the rights of persons receiving or seeking services funded under the federal Rehabilitation Act. According to this law, CAP services are available for all clients or applicants of the following services:
- Arkansas Rehabilitation Services (ARS),
- Division of Services for the Blind (DSB),
- Workforce Center (WFC),
- Independent Living Services (ILS),
- Supported Employment (SE), and
- Independent Living Centers (ILCs)
We assist most individuals through providing helpful information, education, or referral to appropriate resources. Individual advocacy is available as needed, in accordance with Federal regulations, and legal representation can facilitate systemic change for persons with disabilities.
| CAP monitors the Hot Springs Rehabilitation Center on a bi-weekly basis. CAP is available to assist clients of rehabilitation service providers in all parts of the state. |
CAP services are funded by the U.S. Department of Education, Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services (OSERS) and are provided free of charge.
