“Illinois Works Together,”

From Lori Zenner, DRS
Dear DRS Community Partners:
Please find attached (link below) a copy of “Illinois Works Together,” a joint communication from the partner agencies working to implement the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA). This includes an update on key implementation activities as well as a timeline leading into next year. While much has been accomplished there is still much more to do as Illinois develops its 21st-century workforce system. In particular, DRS will be working on making strong connections that benefit participants in the vocational rehabilitation program, as well as advising one-stop partners on making locations and programs accessible to people with disabilities.
