2023 California Code › Unemployment Insurance Code - UIC › DIVISION 3 - EMPLOYMENT SERVICES PROGRAMS › PART 1 - EMPLOYMENT AND EMPLOYABILITY SERVICES › CHAPTER 5 - Employment Services for the Deaf and Hearing Impaired › Section 11000.

11000. The Legislature finds that over 1.5 million persons in California are deaf or significantly hard of hearing. Private and public employment agencies are not routinely adapted to meet the communication needs of persons who are deaf and hard of hearing and, therefore, the services they receive may be less than those provided to other persons. The Legislature also finds that employment opportunities for persons who are deaf and hard of hearing are increased when specialized counseling, interpretive, job placement, and followup services supplement conventional employment services. In addition, the limited programs that provide these specialized employment services to persons who are deaf and hard of hearing have recently been subject to significant local funding reductions. Therefore, the Legislature finds that a more stable funding source, as provided by this chapter, is necessary to ensure the continuance of these programs.
