This includes those with complex and significant disabilities, for whom job placement in the past has been limited, or has not traditionally occurred. Employment First is everyone’s responsibility. State and local government agencies, employers, service providers, community members, and families and individuals with disabilities should work in partnership so people with disabilities and others with employment barriers get into the labor force.”
