      Are YOU satisfied with the services YOU are receiving or have received from OVR?  Were they better than you expected? OK, or not as good as you expected?  Here is your chance to let OVR know how YOU feel about their services.
The OVR Customer Satisfaction Survey conducted by the PaRC, an independent citizen group authorized by the Federal Government, is available now for you to take at the PaRC website, www.parac.org. 
A comment made on last year’s survey, by a person like YOU, helped OVR see a need for more training on autism disorders.  So, find a computer here, at your home, a neighbor’s place, or the library, etc., and take the survey.  You’ll be glad you were able to help OVR help other people, like YOU.    Thanks Much!

      PAPSRS&apos; members:
PAPSRS (the Pennsylvania Psychiatric Rehabilitation Association) is happy to announce a new Member service through our Website - www.papsrs.org.   PAPSRS will allow Organizational Members to provide Job Vacancies to be posted on the PAPSRS website.  It will also be possible for all PAPSRS members to submit their resumes and job interests to also be posted on the website.

Several members have requested this type of help to inform recruiters and job seekers, and we are pleased take this first step and hope to later refine and enhance this service.  

Agencies can complete the attached RECRUITMENT FORM giving the requested details and email the form to papsrs@comcast.net.  Members of the PAPSRS Communications Committee will post the information in the NEWS section of the website and interested candidates will be able to contact potential employers directly.

Job Seekers may complete the attached JOB SEEKER FORM and email the form to papsrs@comcast.net.  Members of the PAPSRS Communications Committee will enter Job Seeker information in the NEWS section of the PAPSRS website, and interested recruiters can contact Job Seekers directly.

Questions about this new service can be directed to me at papsrs@comcast.net.  PAPSRS hopes that this new service will benefit all of our members.
