2. Read about what to include with the referral in the “Referring directly to VRS/SSB” section of the “Find” page of this toolkit (5 min)
3. Read: Internal VR policy and guidance “Chapter 1: Qualifying for Services” material on intake and eligibility (available to VRS/SSB staff through staff SharePoint)
