Description

Excerpted from the website:

The AbilityOne Program is a federal initiative to help people who are blind or severely disabled find employment by working for nonprofit agencies (NPAs) that sell products and/or services to the U.S. government. In 1938, Congress created the program to enable agencies serving people who were blind to sell products to the federal government. By 1971, the original Act was amended to permit people with other severe disabilities to also benefit. In the United States in 2007, barely one-third of people who are blind or have other severe disabilities are employed. Almost half of those with college degrees are unemployed.
