Colorado Disability Program Navigator Model

 



Disability Program Navigators guide Workforce Center Staff in helping people with disabilities access and navigate the complex provisions of various programs that impact their ability to gain/retain employment.

Disability Program Navigators are funded by the Colorado Workforce Development Council/Colorado Office of Workforce Development through a federal grant from Social Security Administration and the U.S. Department of Labor and the Colorado Department of Human Services/Division of Voc Rehab.
