Join the Conversation for Change - May 13-27, 2013


 

The U.S. departments of Labor, Education, and Health and Human Services and
the Social Security Administration invite policymakers, service providers,
the advocacy community and others to participate in an online dialogue to
examine the impact of existing federal regulations and legislation on the
successful transition from school to work of youths and young adults with
disabilities. The dialogue will be open May 13-27. "We must ensure that our
federal programs and resources support our nation's youths and young adults
with disabilities in reaching their dreams of economic empowerment and
independence, and we need to hear from many people," said Kathy Martinez,
assistant secretary of labor for disability employment policy. "Speaking up
online can help us identify barriers as well as opportunities that may exist
at the federal level and also help us develop solutions."
