  • Mental Health at Work: Building Inclusive & Resilient Workplaces

    In recognition of Disability Pride Month and the anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), this session explores the critical intersection of mental health and workplace inclusion. Learn how organizations can build supportive work environments that foster wellbeing, reduce stigma, and accommodate a wide range of mental health needs. Attendees will leave with practical strategies to strengthen mental health support, enhance inclusion, and sustain a healthier, more resilient workforce.

  • Recruiting College Talent with Disabilities: What Works, What Doesn’t, and Why

    As organizations compete for early career talent, college students and recent graduates with disabilities remain one of the most overlooked talent pools. Many employers are eager to hire this emerging workforce but struggle to build meaningful campus connections, create accessible recruiting experiences, and retain new hires once they join the organization.

    Drawing on insights from NOD research, this session explores practical strategies for strengthening disability-inclusive recruiting and creating workplace cultures where early career talent can thrive.

    • Lorena Chelaru | Human Resources & Operations Manager, NOD
    • Margaret Ling | Senior Partnerships Manager, NOD

    SESSION FOCUS WILL EXPLORE:
    • Why students with disabilities remain an underutilized source of early career talent
