It's Disability Employment Awareness Month!
Listen now
Description
In this week's episode, I talk about the importance of Disability Employment Awareness Month, and how it's an opportunity to talk about the transition for our neurodiverse peers from high school to competitive integrated employment. Which is one of the biggest changes our neurodiverse peers face! For many of our children, routine is an essential part of their day to day lives. As well as a consistent environment. Both of these consistencies change once they face adulthood. As well as the opportunity for our neurodiverse individuals to experience employment and all that it entails. As a CRP (Community Rehab Provider), I talk about the challenges and successes that come with fighting to create inclusive employment opportunities for neurodiverse individuals. I also talk about how providers, educators and even families can be a part of preparing them for successful employment. You don't want to miss this episode!
