The North Dakota Department of Human Services’ Division of Vocational Rehabilitation recently recognized employees from its Fargo, Dickinson, Jamestown, Minot and Williston offices for their work assisting North Dakotans with disabilities to obtain employment.
Derek Kimmes and Jennifer Moldenhauer of the Jamestown Division of Vocational Rehabilitation office received the Director’s Award for Counselor Achievement – Honorable Mention. The division presents this award to counselors who have the second highest number of individuals placed into employment.
Vocational rehabilitation services help people with disabilities find meaningful work and also help employers connect with an often untapped workforce, as well as retain trained workers whose abilities have changed. Rehabilitation counseling and consultation are available at no cost to qualifying individuals and businesses, nonprofits and government agencies.
