Understanding the Mechanisms by which Individuals with Disabilities Strive to Work

The Institute on Disability at the University of New Hampshire (UNH), in partnership with the Kessler Foundation, has conducted the 2015 National Employment and Disability Survey focused on employment issues for working age adults with disabilities. In preparation of the ADA’s upcoming 25th anniversary, the Kessler Foundation is extending an invitation to hear panelists discuss the Kessler Foundation National Employment and Disability Survey on June 3. 

This survey was administered to 3,000 people with disabilities who answered questions about their experiences in the workplace−the challenges they faced, as well as their successes. The Kessler Foundation National Employment and Disability Survey yields new information that will inform researchers, grant makers and policymakers, influencing the development of effective strategies for promoting long-term, meaningful employment opportunities. 

A live webcast is available on June 3rd between 12 – 1:30 PM. To join it, click here:http://www.ustream.tv/channel/kfsurvey15
