  • The Role of American Job Centers (AJCs) in Promoting Access to Good Jobs for All

    People with disabilities play a crucial role in strengthening America’s economy. To support this year’s National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM) theme, Access to Good Jobs for All, we recognize the role of the American Job Center (AJC) Network. Under the vision of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), AJCs and their partners provide access and opportunities to all job seekers, including individuals with barriers to employment that is inclusive of individuals with disabilities, to prepare for, obtain, retain, and advance in high-quality jobs. This webinar will spotlight four AJCs located in communities within the states of New York and Colorado. Panel presenters will provide insights on the services the AJCs provide, share a roadmap for accessing AJC services, discuss the critical role of partnerships in service delivery, and highlight the creative integration of universal design principles to ensure meaningful access to all customers using AJC services.

  • Helping Families to Understand the Employment Process and See Possibilities

    For individuals with disabilities who are competitively employed the positive impact of the job goes far beyond a paycheck. However, families may have a difficult time seeing the benefits of employment. This session will breakdown the most common steps in facilitating community-based employment for an individual with a disability and highlight ways families and caregivers can play a role in the process. Topics will include tools for initiating a strengths-based employment search, the importance of work experiences, and tips for navigating employment supports. Families who understand the employment process may be more likely to embrace real work as the preferred option for their loved one, leading to lives that are meaningful and deeply connected to a person's community.
