| American Indian Vocational Rehabilitation Programs (AIVRP) have an abbreviated history but a long story of challenges to service provision. Social service systems today and historically have grappled with the uniqueness of the American Indian communities. |  |
Each Tribe has their own distinct culture and language that complicates attempts to serve the American Indian nations. For this reason, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 was amended to include Section 130 (now Section 121) that authorized Federal and State Recognized Tribes to provide VR services. |
