Dear Stakeholders,

As you know all too well, the COVID-19 mitigation efforts have resulted in
disruption to our daily lives. However, OVR’s core mission remains the
same, and OVR staff are dedicated to partnering with our vendor community
and working through the challenges to serve as many individuals as
possible. Despite all the uncertainty in the world, the staff at OVR are
working tirelessly to provide services virtually to the people that depend
on us the most and create employment opportunities for people with
disabilities.

OVR is pleased to inform you of positive news regarding customers who are
on OVR’s Order of Selection (OOS) wait list. On May 1, 2020, we will begin
processing an estimated 4,500 customers off the wait list with priority
given to eligible customers who have been on the wait list the longest. We
will continuously reevaluate opportunities to move additional cases off the
wait list into the future. For additional information, please refer to
OVR’s Order of Selection
<https://www.dli.pa.gov/Individuals/Disability-Services/OOS/Pages/default.aspx>
web
page.

Sincerely,

Shannon Austin
Executive Director, OVR
