When the labor market tightens up, opportunities open up for largely marginalized groups, including people who are disabled.
But in Ohio, the workforce still lags when it comes to employing people with disabilities.
Today on All Sides, we talk about the opportunities, the programs and hear from people at work or trying to get a job.
Guests:
- Mary Dale Walters, senior vice president of Strategic Communications, Allsup Employment Services
- Scott Lissner, OSU’s Americans With Disabilities Act Coordinator, board member of the Center for Disability Empowerment
- Kari Jones, President & CEO, Down Syndrome Association of Central Ohio
