HHS funds disability research and services. The Department of Labor supports disability employment programs through the Office of Disability Employment Policy.
- Are there grants for disability-owned businesses?
- Yes. Service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses (SDVOSBs) qualify for government contract set-asides and specific grant programs. The SBA and state agencies offer programs for entrepreneurs with disabilities. Foundations like the National Organization on Disability and various corporate programs also fund disability entrepreneurship.
