Organizations supporting the employment of veterans with disabilities. In addition to those services noted in Chapter 2, consider the following: Centers for Independent Living (CILs). These community-based nonprofit agencies are run by and for people with disabilities and provide employment-related services. They help employers find qualified candidates with disabilities and provide advice on employment support that may impact an employer's ability to hire, retain, and advance veterans with disabilities.133

Employment Networks (ENs). ENs are private organizations or public agencies that have agreed to provide employment and vocational rehabilitation services to beneficiaries with disabilities under the Social Security Administration's Ticket to Work Program. Employers may contact ENs in their area to express interest in employing people with disabilities.134

Council of State Administrators of Vocational Rehabilitation/National Employment Team (NET). Nationwide network of business consultants that serves as employers' point of contact for vocational rehabilitation (VR) and ensures the workforce needs of VR agencies' business customers are met.135

State vocational rehabilitation agencies. Organizations that provide state and federally funded programs to help disabled veterans find, secure, and retain employment and accept job postings from employers interested in hiring them.136

Employment Referral Resource Directory. Maintained by the US Department of Labor's Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP), this directory lists not-for-profit organizations that assist in hiring qualified applicants and programs providing job referral services to veterans, individuals with disabilities, women, and minority groups.137
