Liaisons
AbilityOne® Liaisons and Associate Liaisons provide a crucial backbone of support for the AbilityOne Program. AbilityOne Liaisons are Federal employees designated by their agency's Procurement Executive or other senior official to promote AbilityOne agency-wide. AbilityOne Associate Liaisons are AbilityOne supporters in field offices or other divisions who volunteer to help promote AbilityOne within their areas. This diverse group of individuals plays a key role in generating AbilityOne employment opportunities nationwide. Federal acquisition professionals, purchase card holders and others responsible for purchasing decisions, as well as Federal employees who simply have an interest in disability issues and a willingness to help spread the word about AbilityOne to their co-workers are welcome to join the AbilityOne Liaison Network. Learn more about how liaisons can help.
A list of AbilityOne Liaisons and Associate Liaisons appears below.
To help reduce the astoundingly high percentage (70%) of Americans with disabilities who do not have jobs by becoming a liaison, please contact your agency-wide AbilityOne Liaison (see Liaison List below) or Mike Jurkowski, Acting Director, Business Operations, at mjurkowski@abilityone.gov or 703-785-6404.
