Part I. Funding Opportunity Description 1. Background The Office of Disability Employment Policy provides national leadership by developing and influencing disabilityrelated employment policies and practices. A five-year strategic plan guides ODEP in achieving its mission by identifying long-term strategic and outcome goals as well as shorter-term intermediate and performance goals. In addition to measuring agency performance, as required by the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA), the strategic plan sets forth a road map for prioritizing the formulation and dissemination of innovative employment policies and practices to service delivery systems and employers. PO 00000 Frm 00090 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 ODEP’s annual goal is to build knowledge and advance disability employment policy that affects and promotes systems change. The agency’s long- and short-term goals focus efforts on initiatives that bring about this level of change. In short, ODEP develops policies and strategies that will: • Enhance the capacity of service delivery systems to provide appropriate and effective services and supports to youth and adults with disabilities. • Increase planning and coordination within service delivery systems to develop and improve systems, processes, and services. • Improve individualization of services to better assist youth and adults with disabilities in seeking, obtaining, and retaining employment or selfemployment. • Increase employer access to supports and services to meet their employment needs. • Increase the quality of competencybased training for service delivery systems. • Increase the adoption of universal strategies for service provision. • Develop partnerships with and among critical stakeholders to effectively leverage available resources and facilitate implementation of practices and policies that increase employment and self-employment opportunities and the recruitment, retention, and promotion of youth and adults with disabilities. As required by the Government Performance and Results Act, the following three output measures inform ODEP of its progress in meeting its annual goal of building knowledge and advancing disability employment policy: 1. The number of policy-related documents. 2. The number of formal agreements. 3. The number of effective practices. These performance measures generate results that in turn support the achievement of the following outcome goals: Increased Awareness/Knowledge Transfer; Adoption/Implementation of Policies and/or Effective Practices; and Customer Satisfaction with ODEP’s Products and Services. Achievement of these outcome goals will eventually lead to the creation of Most Significant Changes (MSCs) in systems and entities affecting employment opportunities for people with disabilities. Developing the talents, skills and capabilities of the workforce has always played an important part in our nation’s economic strength. The 21st century economic landscape is rapidly changing as technology and globalization alter the nature of work and the skills and E:\FR\FM\16JNN1.SGM 16JNN1
