For Community Organizations

Help shape OLMVO before the pilot begins

OLMVO is actively seeking input from adults with disabilities and community and disability organizations during development.

This page is for Centers for Independent Living, disability-led organizations, vocational rehabilitation organizations, universities, nonprofits, government agencies, advocacy organizations, and community providers.

We want to hear from you. Your perspective can help OLMVO better serve adults with disabilities and strengthen the community participation landscape.

What OLMVO is not

We want to be clear about our scope. This is not about replacing existing organizations or services — it's about adding something focused on community participation.

Medical treatment
Therapy
Case management
A residential program
A replacement for Centers for Independent Living
A replacement for Vocational Rehabilitation
A replacement for disability-led organizations
A solicitation platform

Working with OLMVO

Potential future or community collaboration may include:

  • Sharing opportunities for community input
  • Providing feedback on the OLMVO concept
  • Helping identify community access barriers
  • Identifying useful local resources
  • Discussing potential community partnerships

Sharing an opportunity or providing feedback does not mean your organization endorses OLMVO. We respect the independence of every organization we interact with.
