The Department of Labor’s Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP) and the Department of Defense’s Office of Diversity Management and Equal Opportunity have established a 2013 Workforce Recruitment Program (WRP) database containing more than 3,000 profiles of postsecondary students and recent graduates with disabilities, including veterans, that can be accessed by private sector employers. According to a news release announcing the database’s launch, the job candidates have been interviewed and pre-screened by federal recruiters. Private sector employers can access the WRP through ODEP's national Employer Assistance and Resource Network by visiting the website or by calling the organization’s toll-free phone number: 855-275-3276.
