New York State Office of Mental Health (OMH): New Private Sector Employment Opportunities for People with Mental Illness
The NY State Office of Mental Health (OMH) is entering a partnership with the NY State Industries for the Disabled, Inc. (NYSID) that will create competitive, private sector employment opportunities for individuals with mental illness. A NYSID-preferred vendor of digital imaging services will employ recipients of mental health services to optically scan OMH paper records and convert them to indexed digital images for easier storage and access. OMH hopes it will result in a workforce that has been trained in marketable information technology skills. OMH and NYSID plan to begin implementing this new approach in early 2007.
