• DOL Web Pages on This Topic

The Department of Labor's Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP) provides resources to help people with disabilities find employment. These resources include:

• Job Links provides a list of employers who are interested in recruiting and hiring qualified individuals with disabilities for open positions in their companies.
• Directory of State Liaisons provides state contacts on disability issues in each state. The state liaisons are typically the directors of the state disability commissions, committees, or councils. The staff of these organizations can often provide information on a multitude of resources available to people with disabilities.

Job search assistance is also available through local one-stop career centers. These centers are administered by the Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration (ETA). ETA also offers assistance from One-Stop Disability Coordinators.
