Session

Don't be afraid of accommodations

People with disabilities represent the largest minority group in the United States. Demographically, they are often well-qualified and educated. Unfortunately, they are underrepresented in the workforce, with high rates of unemployment. While it is true that often the person's disability may make employment difficult, in other cases hiring managers and recruiters avoid hiring people with disabilities because or misperceptions about what support is needed for them. During this talk we'll break down these misconceptions while providing actionable advice on how to hire and support employees with disabilities.
