Abstract

Since the 1970's an increasing number of deaf service centers have been established, primarily through state and local community support. During 1984, in order to know more about their development and potential as a rehabilitation resource, the Region IV Rehabilitation Services Administration, with the cooperation of the eight southeastern state Vocational Rehabilitation programs, conducted a pilot survey to determine how these centers were established; what services they typically provide; their staffing component; the size of their operating budgets; and what unavailable services deaf people most frequently need.
