Overview
This bill requires the New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development (DOLWD) and the Department of Human Services (DHS) to assess employment opportunities offered by community rehabilitation programs and community businesses for people with disabilities. The goal is to determine if these placements meet the criteria for ‘competitive integrated employment’ under federal law, specifically the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA). The assessment will consider various employment types, including those through AbilityOne and Rehabilitation Facilities Set-Aside Act contracts, and prohibits disqualification based solely on the contract type.
