How to enroll at Partners in Rehabilitation?

Referrals are received from agencies such as the Department of Rehabilitation, local Regional Centers, schools, mental health agencies, medical services providers, consumers, third party payers, and their families.

An initial interview or team meeting is held which helps Partners in Rehabilitation assess the person's current needs. The consumer then actively participates in the development of an individualized program plan, which includes their preferences, skills and hopes for the future.
