Waitlist Information and Resources

Why Does DVR Need a Waitlist?

DVR has a goal to work with our partners and stakeholders to reduce the prosperity gap for people with disabilities by 10% in 10 years. 

More people with disabilities are entering the labor force than ever before. The ability to work virtually, along with DVR providing virtual services and offering online referrals, have added to the demand for DVR services. Our resources can no longer keep up with the demand, and we expect demand will only increase over the next year. A waitlist will help DVR staff continue to provide excellent, individualized services.

We anticipate starting a waitlist by January 2026.

How Can I Help?

DVR is working to create a robust information and referral network for Coloradans with disabilities to access resources. Please help us build this network by submitting community resources in your area.
