With this warmer weather, we can’t help but think about summer and L&I’s @PA_OVR MY Work program! This program gives high school students with disabilities the opportunity to gain hands-on work experience right in their own communities – all while earning a paycheck. Governor Josh Shapiro’s 2025-26 proposed budget includes an additional $5 million to help the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation (OVR) continue its mission of connecting people with disabilities to competitive integrated employment.
We have an entire office in the Department of Labor & Industry that helps folks with disabilities get in the workforce. It’s called OVR — the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation. This office doesn’t just give workers the skills they need — it actually fosters connections between the 50,000 Pennsylvanians who receive help from OVR and the businesses looking for trained workers. This is something the First Lady herself has worked closely with our teams on at L&I, DCED, and the Office of Transformation and Opportunity. I want to thank the First Lady for her leadership in this space and ask all of you to come together and fund the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation so that work can continue.
