We are thrilled to announce this year's Gala Alumni Speakers: Nadia Dennis and Max Behr! Nadia was a BroadFutures intern this past summer as part of our DC Program, and interned with @CBRE. Max was a BroadFutures intern this past winter as part of our new national internship program in collaboration with @BoozAllenHamilton. We look forward to hearing from Nadia and Max this Saturday evening and learning about their internship takeaways.

Thank you Worklife for sharing our work with Booz Allen Hamilton in creating more inclusive and accessible workplaces for #neurodivergent young people entering the workforce! #neuroinclusivity #accessibility #inclusion #BroadFutures #BoozAllenHamilton
VP Inclusive Workplaces - Texthelp - Committed ERG member. Passionate about DEI, Neurodiversity and Inclusion
Interesting article in Worklife on neurodiversity programs and manager training initiatives at Bank of America and Booz Allen Hamilton with BroadFutures, Inc. this morning. “We see the enormous contributions they can make to our workforce and communities. We want to ensure that managers have the foundation they need to understand how neurodiversity can play out in the workplace and the tools they need to manage this talent pool.” Jenny Kim Park “Typically the biggest barrier for employment for the neurodiverse community is navigating that interview process. If companies aren’t engaging purposefully with this talent pipeline, why not?” Tom Downs, CDR As more organizations invest in neurodiversity initiatives, I’m curious: How is your company approaching neuro-inclusivity? Are there particular strategies or tools that you’ve found effective in supporting neurodiverse talent? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!

Experienced employee benefits professional with expertise managing health & welfare and retirement plans. Focus on compliance, employee support/education.
Please join the HR Alliance on November 13 for this important conversation about neurodiversity in the workplace. We welcome HR professionals, hiring managers, neurodivergent individuals (and their families/allies), educational professionals who provide support to neurodivergent students, offices of career counseling. It truly takes a village. This is important to me not only to establish equity in the workplace but also to provide opportunities for my son, a recent college graduate who is neurodiverse. If the registration fee is a barrier to your attending this program, please send me a direct message for a discount code. BroadFutures, Inc. is an awesome organization that pairs neurodivergent young adults with organizations for internships. They provide amazing support to interns and their supervisors for meaningful experiences and guidance to mutually navigate the workplace and the transition from school to work. Their perspective on the panel will be invaluable ton the discussion. Hope to see you there.
