THE JWOD LIAISON NETWORK

JWOD Liaisons (Federal employees designated by their agency's Procurement Executive or other senior official to promote JWOD agency-wide) and JWOD Associate Liaisons (JWOD supporters in field offices or other divisions who volunteer to help promote JWOD within their areas) provide a crucial backbone of support for the Program. This diverse group of individuals plays a key role in generating JWOD 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 JWOD to their co-workers, are welcome to join the JWOD Liaison Network!
