Workforce Recruitment Program

Program Overview

The Workforce Recruitment Program for College Students with Disabilities (WRP) is a recruitment and referral program that connects public and private sector employers nationwide with highly motivated postsecondary students and recent graduates with disabilities who are eager to prove their abilities in the workplace through paid summer or permanent jobs.

Each year, students can submit an application and supporting materials to the WRP database, which is made available to federal hiring managers and contractors for a calendar year. The tabs below provide a brief overview of the program and requirements.

The next application cycle will open in August 2025. If you have questions about this program, please contact Angie Haney at angie.haney@ttu.edu

If you have any questions, please contact Angie Haney or call our office at (806) 742-2210. More information can also be found at www.wrp.gov.

The WRP is co-sponsored by the U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP) and the U.S. Department of Defense's Diversity Management Operations Center (DMOC), with support from other federal agencies.
