Description
This modification corrects formatting errors in the presolication notice.The National Council on Disability (NCD) has begun an assertive and systematic review of both public and private policies and initiatives aimed at improving the employment of people with disabilities. A primary building block in the sequential but complementary studies on employment is NCD’s currently underway Social Security/Transitioning to Work Study, examining the evidence-based practices that promote the return to work (and transition to work) of working age beneficiaries of the DI and SSI programs. The next building block will be this employment study, which will include the following major components: a) a thorough, systematic examination or “environmental scan” of the nexus between employment and the following areas: transportation; housing; reasonable accommodations; education; health care; assistive technology; telecommunications; long-term services and supports, and telecommuting, among other topics; b) the establishment of a business advisory committee and the conduction of public forums to solicit information and input on employment issues and practices; c) the development of informational issue briefs that examine the status and impact of existing employment strategies at the federal, state and local level, such as customized employment, entrepreneurship, telework, supported employment, microbusiness, e-commerce, and competitive employment; and d) a cohesive final report with information drawn from the environmental scan, business advisory committee, public forums and informational briefs along with recommendations aimed at improving the employment status of people with disabilities. This employment study will be conducted at the same time that NCD undertakes a complementary research initiative on financial incentives available to enhance the ability of people with disabilities to live and work independently and in the community of their choice. The estimated contract period is 12 months. NCD will distribute its Employment Study Request for Proposals (RFP) to interested parties on February 4, 2005. NCD will expect interested parties to submit their responses by March 22, 2005. Copies of the RFP may be requested by mail or picked up on or after the issue date of February 4, 2005. All requests must reference the RFP number and title. For more information, contact Joan Durocher, 1331 F Street, N.W., Suite 850, Washington, D.C. 20004, jdurocher@ncd.gov.
