to providing assistance and advocacy under the Rehabilitation Act, a 
CAP agency may provide information on the assistance and benefits on 
title I of the ADA, especially those who have traditionally been 
unserved or underserved by the vocational rehabilitation program, with 
respect to services that are directly related to facilitating the 
employment for applicants or eligible individuals.
