Veterans Administration Leads in Hiring "Handi-capable" The Veterans Administration is one of the Federal Government's leaders in hiring the handi capped, according to the Equal Opportunity Com mission's draft report to the Congress for FY 1986. Of all employees with severe disabilities who were hired government-wide in that period, 16.4 percent were hired by the Veterans Administration. "The fact that we are leaders in hiring the handi capable should be a surprise to no one," said Jerry G. McRae, Director of the Portland Veterans Admini stration Regional Office. "Locally we employ 29 dis abled people in various roles. For example, Brian Green, who works as a counseling psychologist, was our nominee as the Outstanding Handicapped Federal Employee of the Year in 1987. After seeing him work it seems inappropriate to call him handi capped." The Veterans Administration has special pro grams for unemployed and/or disabled veterans and salary assistance programs for employers who will train a Korean Conflict or Vietnam Era veteran for a permanent job.
