I've finally written to the supervisor of VR, and explained my situation with collated exhibits. I sent copies of this also to the counselor involved and the director of CAP (Governor's Commission on Disability/NH). I dont know why its taken me so long to do this, but part of the impetus was attending a meeting in Conway on December 13th where VR had public discussions on the effectiveness of their programs, and recommendations for the next fiscal year. Those collecting commentary, to assemble into the report of recommendations for the next year, were very friendly and open. They answered questions that were raised and left unanswered by my treatment, and so I became more knowledgeable about what SHOULD have happened instead. Also, I've compiled a new plan so that I can gain the skills necessary to commit myself to counseling others who encounter similar difficulties, and again, I'm asking for their help. It seems ridiculous to ask for their help when they have been so unwilling to give it otherwise, but the time has come for them to realize who they are supposed to serve, how they are supposed to do it, and why.
So cross your fingers, and let's hope I can get somewhere this time!
