About the company
Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity, operating as the Bureau of Services for Blind Persons, is a U.S. state government entity registered with SAM.gov since June 2004. The Bureau serves as Michigan's designated state vocational rehabilitation agency and specialized service provider for individuals who are blind or visually impaired. Through its federal grant awards, the entity delivers comprehensive rehabilitation services, employment support programs, and independent living assistance to eligible populations across Michigan.
The Bureau of Services for Blind Persons has received consistent federal grant awards from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services across multiple program streams. The primary funding mechanism has been formula grants supporting State Vocational Rehabilitation Services, which provide vocational assessments, career counseling, job training, placement assistance, workplace accommodations, and independent living skills instruction to individuals with disabilities. The Bureau has also received dedicated funding through the Independent Living Services for Older Individuals Who are Blind program, which supports services specifically tailored to older blind populations, including transportation access improvements, household management assistance, community participation support, and public outreach initiatives. Additionally, the entity received a COVID-19 relief grant under the Randolph-Sheppard Financial Relief and Restoration Payments program in 2021 to assist blind vendors who experienced pandemic-related losses. The Bureau's recent award cycle (fiscal year 2025-2026) included three formula grants totaling approximately $7.5 million: a $7,217,774 State Vocational Rehabilitation Services award and a $324,015 Independent Living Services for Older Individuals Who are Blind award. According to grant documentation, the Bureau is authorized to sub-award portions of its grants to local workforce development boards, community organizations, and educational institutions to implement employment support and independent living services at the community level, thereby extending the reach and effectiveness of federal rehabilitation funding throughout Michigan.
