Serve as a resource in preparing grant applications to local, state, and federal agencies to enhance services for individuals with disabilities in the North Central Region.
Serve as a liaison to the Bureau of Rehabilitation Services and other state agencies.
Collaborate with designated Equal Employment Opportunity Officers at CWP and contracted providers to ensure facilities, services, programs, and equipment are accessible to individuals with disabilities, including availability of publications and materials in alternative formats.
Represent CWP on local and state committees, task forces, and working groups related to disability services, accessibility, workforce inclusion, and community resources.
