Welcome to ETA's Disabilities Program home page, Disability Online. The Disabilities Program develops and implements workforce disability policy and program initiatives to address structural, programmatic, and systemic employment barriers for people with disabilities. The Disabilities Program supports the New Freedom Initiative to improve career and employment outcomes for people with disabilities through: 1) inter-and intra-agency collaborations and partnerships; 2) demand-driven initiatives responding to employers' recruitment and retention needs; 3) training and technical assistance; 4) legislative and regulatory, policy, and operations analysis; and 5) other activities that lead to systemic improvement. The Disabilities Program's goal is to provide the greatest opportunity for job seekers and employees with disabilities to achieve employment and economic self-sufficiency through the One Stop Career Center system by utilizing the principles of self-determination, informed choice, integration, and inclusion.
