"Our presentation focuses on the concept of inclusive employment and how to factor diversity, equity and inclusion into your workplace through a lens of supporting individuals with developmental disabilities in Canada.

We discuss common ways to accommodate individuals with disabilities in the workplace, as well as the competitive advantage of having diverse hiring practices and promoting inclusion.

We integrate relevant case study examples of businesses and organizational leaders that have been innovative in hiring individuals with disabilities, and how their operations have benefited from it."
