Wendy Vance bio:  


 I have 17 years' experience working in the field of disability and a lifetime of experience as people with disabilities. 

I have worked as a vocational rehabilitation counselor for 8 years with 3 of those being a counselor supervisor.  I have worked 6 years in disability advocacy with 3 of those years as an education advocate.  I have also worked in assistive technology sales and training.   

While working in these roles I have helped hundreds of individuals to obtain quality employment of their choice, to access quality education and to connect to community resources and supports. I have also provided numerous training sessions at statewide conferences such as Family Cafe, Visions, and FL Self - Advocates Network (Sand). I have presented at national conferences such as the Alliance of Information & Referral Systems and Association of Vision Rehabilitation Therapists. In addition to presenting at conferences, I have presented through the Florida Center for Inclusive communities as a part of their monthly employment webinars.  Topics have included school to work transition, employment for people with disabilities, reasonable accommodations, self-advocacy and relationship violence toward people with disabilities.
