The Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled has announced an addition to the Procurement List, which includes a custodial service at Cannon Air Force Base in New Mexico. This service will be provided by ENMRSH, Inc., a nonprofit agency that employs individuals who are blind or have severe disabilities. The addition will take effect on February 15, 2021, and is aimed at creating new job opportunities for people with significant disabilities under the AbilityOne program. This decision follows the expiration of the previous contract, and it ensures that the Air Force's needs are met without interruption.
Simple Explanation
The government added a new cleaning job at an Air Force Base in New Mexico to a list of jobs for a nonprofit that helps people who can't see or have other big challenges, so these people have a chance to work.
