About: This webinar begins a series focused on the importance of overall mental health and well-being as related to a person’s ability to break through career barriers. Throughout the series, panel members will share information on factors affecting accessibility and the ways in which career practitioners and employers can support people in gaining access to fulfilling work. In this first webinar, the panel will focus on DEIJA (diversity, equity, inclusion, justice, accessibility) as it relates to disabilities/differ-abilities and career. Statistics show that people with disabilities have the highest unemployment rate, and those are people who have disclosed disabilities. Panelists will discuss barriers to sustainable employment, overall mental health and well-being and the general work environment for this group of people.
Moderator: Courtney Warnsman
