Do you want your state legislator to see people with disabilities on the job, earning a competitive wage? Do you want more state policymakers to support policies that help people with disabilities get jobs in the community?

- Hear what employers have to say about the value of hiring people with disabilities;
- Learn about innovative on-the-job supports that are cost-effective, resulting in people earning higher wages in a job that is individualized to their skills and interests – all while meeting an employer’s needs.
- Better understand policies that contribute to Employment First success.
