This federal Formula Grant award of $72,046,869.00 was provided by the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services under the Rehabilitation Services Vocational Rehabilitation Grants to States program (CFDA 84.126). The grant funding supports the Louisiana Workforce Commission's Workforce Development Division, a state government entity, in operating comprehensive vocational rehabilitation services for individuals with disabilities in Louisiana. The award enables the Louisiana Workforce Commission to provide a range of vocational rehabilitation services, including vocational assessments, career counseling, job training, placement assistance, workplace accommodations, and independent living supports. These services are designed to help individuals with disabilities prepare for, secure, and maintain employment that aligns with their strengths, resources, and informed choices. The grant funding allows the Commission to deliver these services directly and through sub-awards to local workforce boards, non-profit organizations, and community partners across the state.
