Carol Holub: RWI, (RehabWest, Inc.), was founded in 1977 by Carol Holub. She holds a Master's Degree in Counseling and Psychology from Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio. After a short tenure in teaching and educational counseling, Carol was drawn to the vocational rehabilitation system because of her passion in assisting people toward a productive life.

RWI has always been a leader in emphasizing the job development phase in the rehabilitation process, insisting on the hiring of job developers (working with counselors) to actually return injured workers to gainful employment. Under Carol's leadership, RWI moved into managed care with the opening of a medical management division.
