Finding it hard to recruit, train, and retain entry-level employees?
There’s an untapped, talented workforce right here in our community – individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) – ready to bring value, dedication, and new energy to your team.
At this Coffee Talk, hosted in partnership with Work Together NC, you will:
- Learn from Local Employers: Hear success stories from businesses already thriving with IDD-inclusive hiring.
- Gain Firsthand Perspectives: Meet self-advocates with IDD who are excelling in their roles and eager to share their journeys.
- Access Community Resources: Discover organizations offering job candidate referrals, training, and ongoing support.
- Connect & Collaborate: Network with peers who are strengthening their workforce through innovative hiring.
Enjoy complimentary coffee and pastries as you engage in this enriching conversation about workforce resilience and community impact.
