It is an indubitable fact that real, meaningful work enriches our lives in many ways. Contributing our gifts and talents, friendships, personal and professional growth, social status, and reputation are all potential benefits that are gained from having valued work. People with significant developmental disabilities or psychosocial disabilities, however, have been deprived of work and employment opportunities. New ideas and new ways of thinking are helping us learn to embrace people with disability in the workforce, and this is an exciting area where change is brewing.

Join us for a workshop to explore powerful ideas and principles that can assist people with disability to enjoy all the benefits of authentic work roles and gain some of those important benefits. Built on a framework of Social Role Valorization, leading international expert on individualized practice and supported/customized employment strategies, Milton Tyree and KII’s Leela Raj will help lay the foundation for new ideas, inclusive strategies, and creative thinking.
