Self-ID Questions

We recognize that people’s identities are complex. The Equal Opportunity Employment Office options do not usually capture how people identify.  To work toward a better solution, we are providing these Self-ID options in the Voluntary Demographics section below. You may choose: "I prefer not to answer" any or all of the self-ID questions. 

At MHCD we embrace diversity and inclusion, and your self-ID will only be used for operational purposes, in aggregate form and has no impact on your application. 

We know that these lists are still incomplete and we encourage you to use the self-describe boxes if you want to identify in a way that is not represented on these lists.

Gender and Sexual Orientation: Which of the following best describes you? If you identify as more than one gender you may select multiple options. If your gender is not listed, please use the self-describe box. *









Do you identify as transgender? (Select one) *



Do you consider yourself a member of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex, Asexual, and/or Two-Spirit, Plus (LGBTQIA2S+) community? (Select one) *



Race and Ethnicity: Which of the following best describes you? Select as many options as apply or use the self-describe box if needed. *










Describe your disability status? This could include physical, auditory, visual, cognitive and developmental disabilities as well as mental health disorders, learning disabilities, health conditions, and others that may be considered “invisible" (Select one) *




Voluntary Self-Identification

For government reporting purposes, we ask candidates to respond to the below self-identification survey. Completion of the form is entirely voluntary. Whatever your decision, it will not be considered in the hiring process or thereafter. Any information that you do provide will be recorded and maintained in a confidential file.

As set forth in WellPower - Vocational Trainee Work Experience ’s Equal Employment Opportunity policy, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected group status under any applicable law.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
