Employment is an important pathway to economic stability, independence, and community participation, yet people with disabilities continue to face barriers to finding and succeeding in competitive employment. In this panel discussion, disability advocates and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) experts will explore employment rights, workplace inclusion, and reasonable accommodations. Through practical examples, panelists will discuss how accommodations can support employees with disabilities and address common misconceptions about disability and employment. The conversation will also highlight the contributions of workers with disabilities and the role families, employers, and communities can play in expanding meaningful employment opportunities and economic inclusion.
