call to action

Bipartisan House members recently introduced the Customized Approaches to Providing and Building Independent Lives of Inclusion for Transition-aged Youth (CAPABILITY) Act of 2019 (H.R.3070). This bill creates competitive grants for six states to develop pre-employment transition services for people with I/DD that which meet competitive integrated employment requirements.

Meanwhile, the Department of Labor's (DOL) Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP) has created a national online dialogue on the use of subminimum wages under Section 14(c) of the Fair Labor Standards Act. DOL is specifically seeking comments from people with disabilities, their families, providers, disability organizations, employers, researchers, and other stakeholders. Submitted comments will now be received through June 21st
