Creating a Roadmap out of Poverty for Americans with Disabilities http://www.dol.gov/odep/documents/197953_DeptLabor.pdf
A Report on the Relationship of the Employment and Training Administration's Workforce Development System and Local Asset-Building Coalitions. New strategies are being pioneered across the country that address both the challenges of advancing employment options for individuals with disabilities. Collaboration between One-Stop Career Centers, the Disability Program Navigators (DPNs) and Asset Building Coalitions are reaching out to low-income workers with disabilities to help them to utilize the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), financial education, and other savings and asset building options. This report focuses on three cities that have greatly assisted people with disabilities to: Break down barriers to employment; Understand the benefits available through tax credits and tax deductions; Obtain free tax preparation; and begin the journey to self-sufficiency.
