Expanded Job Choices and Flexibility for Individuals with Disabilities

This act aims to make it easier for individuals with disabilities to find employment that better suits their needs and skills. It modifies the definition of employment to include a wider range of job types, including those stemming from government contracts. This will allow more people with disabilities to secure stable employment and advance professionally.
Key points
Expands the definition of "competitive integrated employment" to include a broader range of social interactions in the workplace.
Allows jobs with contractors prioritized for employing individuals with disabilities under federal or state contracts to be considered "competitive employment."
Ensures that these changes will not reduce the number of available jobs for individuals with disabilities.
