Session
Attraction, Retention, & Engagement of Women in Tech with invisible Disabilities
In 2014 [it was] found that 27.4% of women ages 18-64 identified with a disability in some form (compared to 20.8% of men in the same age range)." And while the rest of society has visible clues to indicate some disabilities, there is a large faction (sometimes estimated as high as 74% of all disabilities) that are invisible, unseen. A 2017 study showed only 37% of working-aged people with disability are employed in the US. How should companies hire, retain, grow, and include this marginalized group?
