The Client Assistance Program (CAP) is provided by the Nevada Disability Advocacy and Law Center (NDALC). The NDALC has been providing legal and non-legal advocacy to individuals with disabilities statewide since 1995. As a private non-profit protection and advocacy organization, NDALC operates the CAP in a truly independent and autonomous manner in conformance with the spirit and the letter of federal law. With locations in 3 communities, NDALC has a greater ability to serve applicants and clients of the Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) and Independent Living (IL) programs statewide, and to provide statewide outreach and education.

NDALC administers the CAP to achieve fair and impartial dispute resolution between applicants and clients, program staff and service providers. NDALC works closely with DETR’s Rehabilitation Division to ensure that VR and IL applicants and clients are aware of their rights to utilize CAP and receive accurate contact information. NDALC strives to provide excellent service to Nevadans with disabilities, as does the Rehabilitation Division.
