Memos of Support
Many Department Secretaries, Agency Directors, Commanding Officers,
Procurement Executives and Purchase Card Coordinators in the Federal
Government issue Memos of Support for the AbilityOne Program to remind
their staff members of the importance of purchasing AbilityOne products
and services. Such purchases create employment opportunities for
individuals who are blind or who have other severe disabilities,
while ensuring that the Government receives quality products and
services, delivered on time and at reasonable prices.
Some of the Federal agencies who have issued memos or other directives
in reference to support of the AbilityOne Program include:
