    The Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled announced changes to the Procurement List, effective April 27, 2025. New products, including a women's cravat for Space Force, will be added and supplied by designated nonprofits. Meanwhile, certain protective clothing items and services like call center operations and grounds maintenance are being removed due to a lack of government requirements. This decision aims to continue supporting employment opportunities for individuals with disabilities through nonprofit agencies.
