The CRP/RRCEP is a training and technical assistance project which operates within a collaborative structure. It is steered by a Regional Advisory Council which consists of state vocational rehabilitation, community rehabilitation, independent living, and business representatives from Delaware, the District of Columbia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and West Virginia. The Council provides input and direction related to project activities and implementation.

Each year the CRP/RRCEP provides training and technical assistance to rehabilitation personnel through regional collaboration efforts and customer responsive training.
