Turincio has worked for the State of Texas over 30 years, beginning with the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA), Unemployment Insurance, Food Stamps, Medicaid, and TANF before joining Vocational Rehabilitation to manage a mental health caseload for 10 years.

Texas Workforce Solutions-Vocational Rehabilitation Services supports people with disabilities to prepare for, obtain, maintain and advance in meaningful employment by providing a range of services based on an individual’s employment goals. Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) counselors work closely with job seekers to set an employment goal, and then identify and arrange for the high-quality services that lead to successful employment. Other Vocational Rehabilitation programs help youth and students prepare for post-secondary opportunities and employers to recruit, retain and accommodate employees with disabilities.
Rotary meets at the Holiday Inn and Conference Center, 105 Bintu Drive, San Marcos. Visitors are always welcome.
