Welcome to the Governor's Committee on the Employment of People with Disabilities (GCEPD). 

We are a mandated group of volunteers with a broad range of personal and professional experience who are passionate about employment opportunities for all.

Our mission is to:

  1. Advise the Governor on current issues pertaining to the employment of people with disabilities in our State;
  2. Promote relationships among business, government, and service providers to expand opportunities for the employment of people with disabilities;
  3. Increase awareness of the abundant talent of an underutilized pool of valuable potential employees; and,
  4. Inform employers about the benefits of hiring people with disabilities and of the availability of assistive technologies for supporting successful employment.
