Outline of Presentation
Work plays a major role in most people’s lives; yet most people with disabilities are unemployed or seriously underemployed considering their intellectual ability and qualifications. In this hands-on workshop, participants will learn how to prepare those on the spectrum to be successful in the workplace, whether they are employed by someone or choose to become entrepreneurs. For many people with disabilities, developing their talents and starting a small business around them is the surest way to steady employment.
