Peace Corps Proposes a New Policy to Prohibit Discrimination Against Persons with Disability

A few days ago, Peace Corps submitted a proposal to the federal government to change their policy that would prohibit discrimination against persons with disabilities during the application process. If this new policy is fully implemented, it would be a wonderful huge step forward in hopefully seeing more persons with disabilities serve in the Peace Corps!
Also, recently, the White House announced that the Corporation for National Community Service will release a toolkit for persons with disability who served in the Peace Corps, that will provide them with information on transitioning to employment after their service and their rights as persons with disabilities.
