Good evening everyone, I?m looking for some help here in Oklahoma. I was recently told by a counselor that Oklahoma State policy has recently changed, as in the last 30 some odd days. I was told, with no documentation to back it up, that the new policy is clients will be forced to go to in-state training center unless they can trot out special circumstances that make it advisable for them to go out of state. Oklahoma contracts with seven training centers, six of which are out of state. I want to know if there are any federal regulations or RSA rulings to support our contention that clients should be allowed to choose freely from among those centers contracting with Oklahoma. Can anyone out there help me find these if they exist? I?m hoping that RSA has regulation in place to penalize Oklahoma if such a decision really has been made here. I haven?t gotten my hands on any proof that state policy has indeed changed but when I do, I will be sending it on to my state NFB leaders. I have a client who is very new to blindness and has not gotten involved with Nfb yet. She is going to help me obtain the proof if it exists. They don?t know what we are planning together and will not suspect her of passing that information on to the consumer groups. I?m sure they are trying to avoid that and that might be why I?m not getting an answer to my query. Everyone knows I will take whatever they send me straight to Jeannie Massey. And now, for those of you who are fans of horror films like Friday the 13th or Halloween or nightmare on Elm Street, I will tell you this and hope that you sleep better tonight then we are sleeping in Oklahoma. The one training center in state is accredited, cue the scary Music, by NAC! Thanks for any help you guys have out there in the rest of the country, Jane Lansaw NOMC
