Region 14-Employment & Disability
Under the Workforce Investment
Act of 1998, Region 14 partners joined forces to create and
operate a Regional Workforce Development System. The goal of
this system is to enhance customer service by providing useful
information that will facilitate a customer's choice.
The
Region 14 Partnership
is composed of state agencies and regional organizations
committed to working together to improve accessibility for all
individuals. Partner agencies that focus specifically on
employment for people with disabilities in Region 14 include
Iowa
Vocational Rehabilitation Services,
and
Iowa Department for the Blind.
Region 14 serves residents in Southern Iowa covering Adair,
Adams, Clarks, Decatur, Montgomery, Ringgold, Taylor and Union
counties.
This collaborative partnership of state and local agencies
received a grant from the U.S. Department of Labor and the
Social Security Administration to create new positions for
Iowa's Workforce Development Centers called "Disability
Program Navigators."
Disability program navigators will not duplicate services
offered by agencies supporting local workforce services.
