A World In Which People With Disabilities Have Unlimited Employment Opportunities



Frequently Asked Questions

Can DOL's Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP) help people with disabilities find jobs?

ODEP does not provide job placement services. However, we do offer a variety of information and resources for individuals who want to find a job, become self-employed, or pursue an entrepreneurial opportunity:

  • For both general and disability-focused job placement assistance, please see Employment Tips, a fact sheet prepared by ODEP's Job Accommodation Network (JAN).
  • Additional fact sheets that are useful for individuals with disabilities seeking employment are available online on ODEP's Publications page.
  • The Department of Labor provides several resources for job seekers from its Home page. Check the category Job Seekers/Unemployed, and look under "Disability Resources" and "Job & Training Information."
  • An excellent resource for a broad range of employment and job training resources and opportunities is your local One Stop Career Center.
  • Your local One-Stop can also tell you about available services at your state vocational rehabilitation agency.
