It was an honor to be the keynote speaker for SourceAmerica and to create this video saluting their mission! Too often people with disabilities are overlooked when it comes to employment opportunities. Many employers are not aware of the large number of well qualified, hardworking people with disabilities who can and will fill these open positions. SourceAmerica is a nonprofit organization that works with over 500 partner organizations to help tens of thousands of these determined individuals find jobs. Workers from all walks of life. Everyone from veterans with PTSD to individuals with cognitive and physical disabilities. Good on you SourceAmerica, good on you! #disability #inclusion #acceptance #DisabilityEmployment #IAmSomebody #DisabilityAdvocacy

"Having a disability, it's not even a matter of 'we want special consideration,' we just want the chance to sink or swim on our own." Lori White, a steadfast advocate and winner of the 2018 Tom Miller Advocacy Award, attended our Grassroots Advocacy Conference a few years ago. Lori actually experienced a flare-up of her own disability while at the conference, but her determination wasn’t shaken. She recovered and attended the rest of the conference so she could share her story with legislators! Learn more about her story here: https://lnkd.in/e65KwA9X #50YearsOfStories #DisabilityEmployment
