Under the Workforce Investment Act (WIA), persons with disabilities will have easier access to job opportunities through One-Stop Centers. The One-Stop Centers were developed to bring together in one place employment and training services that work with all people and make it easier for job seekers and employers to use these services. The centers provide a great opportunity for people with disabilities to receive services in new and different ways, right alongside everyone else.

The centers have information on job vacancies, career options, and employment trends; how-to instructions on conducting a job search, writing a resume, or interviewing with an employer. The centers also offer referrals to training programs. To find out the location of a center in your area, call the U.S. Department of Labor, Baltimore Office at 410-767-2148.
