Project Description

The Cambria County Association for the Blind and Handicapped thanks our  employees and families, staff and local legislators for coming together to convey the message of CHOICE, that is a person with a disability has the right to choose where to work. 

 We recently made several trips to Harrisburg and Washington DC to express our concerns regarding the impact of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) as it regards employment of persons with disabilities.

It was a very complicated piece of legislation, but thankfully we were able to make our views known and our legislators listened.  

A special THANK YOU to PA Senator Wayne Langerholc for touring our facility, meeting with parents and working with fellow legislators to explain, educate and rally for all persons with disabilities living in Pennsylvania.  Your dedication and commitment to serve persons with disabilities and their families is commendable.
