The NTID Center for Workforce Development supported “Disability Inclusion: What Works,” an all-day event on March 10 where more than 90 people from a variety of industries learned about deafness and disability-inclusive employment. A panel of national and local leaders shared practical solutions for building disability-inclusive workplaces and discussed partnerships that strengthen workplace inclusion. The event was led by RochesterWorks and ACCES-VR. Special recognition to Linda Bryant and Jim Mallory for their work organizing the event.
