 Leveraging Your Disability to Find a Job: How to Make Your Blindness or Low
Vision a Strength When Job Seeking

Individuals who are blind or have low vision often face many barriers
related to employment. In recent years, several organizations that provide
services to job seekers and employers have formed that not only work to
address barriers to employment but provide an employment advantage for blind
and low vision individuals. Join us for our latest webinar to hear from
Jonathan Lucus with NSITE, Ross Barchacky with inclusively and Kristin
Smedley, author of Thriving
Blind: Stories of Real People Succeeding Without Sight. They will talk about
emphasizing strengths, such as problem-solving skills and adaptability, that
you gained from living with a visual impairment. Learn how to leverage your
disability and market yourself to potential employers to obtain employment.


Please register in advance.
