Office of Disability Employment Policy

The U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP) Program Areas webpage is a comprehensive resource that provides information, tools, and best practices designed to improve employment outcomes for people with disabilities. The site covers a wide range of topics related to disability employment, including workplace accommodations, accessible technology, inclusive hiring, apprenticeship programs, self-employment, workforce development, transportation, mental health, veterans, youth employment, and return-to-work strategies. Users can explore evidence-based policies, technical assistance resources, employer guidance, and employment supports that promote accessibility, equity, and workforce participation. The webpage also connects users to nationally recognized disability employment initiatives and resources such as the Job Accommodation Network (JAN), the Employer Assistance and Resource Network on Disability Inclusion (EARN), and the Workforce Recruitment Program (WRP).
