Vocational Rehab MAY pay for any modifications, but they DO NOT pay for the van itself.
if she is going to be working–vocational rehab willhelp–she willhave to pay the base cost–but they may help pay for teh accessibel features (this is in teh US)
It would help to know where you come from. I’m giving you Aussie advice in case you’re in the UK or something…
Anyway… getting a van for wheelchair is fairly difficult and I know it’s an expensive exercise. Try to find out what your local government can offer you. Here we have councils that may help. Or find out some of the disability mobs about the place. For example if the person has Muscular Dystrophy, go to the relevant organisation and see what they can do.
Unfortunately, though, I’ve found that the grants that are out there tend to be for people over 55 – like a rebate for scooters…
