Dear DHS Constituents and Stakeholders:

I???m delighted to share information regarding a valuable training
opportunity. *Accommodation Conversations, *being held in October in
recognition of National Disability Employment Awareness Month, will provide
important information to help individuals with disabilities connect with
employers for career and business success! See details and registration
information attached.  Registration opens 8/16/19.

Also see the article below, which is a fairly comprehensive, encouraging
USA Today piece about employment trends, including data showing that
disability-inclusive companies are outperforming their less inclusive
counterparts!

I hope to see many of you at the October event.

Sincerely,

Peri
