The mission of the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation (DVR) is "to empower individuals with disabilities to achieve a greater quality of life by obtaining and maintaining employment." Employment contributes to a person's ability to live independently, and DVR believes that every person has the right to work.

With offices statewide, DVR has been a partner with Washington State's communities for over 80 years. As a division of the Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS), DVR is designed to help meet the employment needs of people with disabilities and of employers.
