Learn about the rest of the 10th Anniversary Series
Description:
Advancing opportunities means that we take down barriers to education, employment, entrepreneurship, and civic engagement and create pipelines to enable disabled individuals to lead the lives of their choosing. In 2022, we advanced opportunities across our four pillars: Policy and Workforce Development, Entertainment and News Media, Faith Inclusion and Belonging, and Leadership Development. Our Policy team kicked off two major new initiatives to build know-how and remove barriers to employment. Our Entertainment and News Media team deepened its partnerships and secured employment opportunities for Lab alumni. Our Faith Inclusion team expanded beyond the Jewish community to reach new faith and spiritual communities in our inclusion work. And our Leadership team placed Apprentices in externships and mentored an Apprentice of their own.
Join us on Wednesday, April 19 to hear from members of our Board and Staff about our work in this area, and our vision for the coming years. This webinar will have live captions and ASL interpretation, and attendees will be able to ask questions in Zoom through the Q&A function.
