The link in the message doesn't work worth a darn, but if you go into the
website of the U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Disability Employment
Policy, you can see the original release and get that information.

WASHINGTON - The U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Disability
Employment Policy and CVS Caremark Corp. (NYSE: CVS) have established a
two-year nationwide alliance to promote the employment of people with
disabilities. The effort will include technical assistance, training and
education, outreach and communication.

"This alliance will mutually benefit CVS Caremark, the company's work
force and customers, the Labor Department's Office of Disability
Employment Policy and the general public," the ODEP's Karen M.
Czarnecki, acting assistant secretary of labor, said in a statement
yesterday evening.

"Hiring, retaining and advancing employees with disabilities is just
good business," she said. "ODEP and CVS Caremark will share information,
guidance and resources that will help to develop model programs for
other employers, particularly in the retail and pharmacy services
industries."
