The Rehabilitation Services Administration (RSA) is established by Congress
as the principal federal agency authorized to carry out Titles I, III, VI and
VII, as well as specified portions of Title V of the Rehabilitation Act of
1973, as amended. RSA provides national leadership for, and administration
of,
- basic state and formula grant programs,
- independent living centers,
- service projects,
- rehabilitation training discretionary grant programs,
- Randolph-Sheppard vending facilities and
- Helen Keller National Center programs.
These programs develop and implement comprehensive and coordinated programs
of vocational rehabilitation, supported employment and independent living for
individuals with disabilities, through services, training and economic opportunities,
in order to maximize their employability, independence and integration into
the workplace and the community.
RSA is responsible for the formulation, development and implementation of regulations,
policies, and guidelines. RSA serves as a resource and clearinghouse of information
for service providers at national, state and local levels in the development
of national programs to reduce or eliminate social and environmental barriers
experienced by persons with disabilities.
