October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month. Did you know that people with disabilities are twice as likely to be unemployed as those without disabilities? Did you know that 85% of individuals with autism who could be employed are not employed? The numbers are staggering.
What are your employers doing to recruit and retain this untapped segment of talent in the workforce? What can YOU personally do? What ideas can you share for outreach, accommodations, disclosure, and inclusivity? #disabilityinclusion #nationaldisabilityemploymentawarenessmonth #careercounseling #jobsearch #autismatwork
