Webinars

Centers for Independent Living Connecting People with Disabilities to Competitive, Integrated Employment

Webinar Date: September 10, 2024   |   Time: 3:00 pm to 4:30 pm Eastern Time (ET)

 

 

September 2024 marked the 51st anniversary of the passage of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. To commemorate the first civil rights legislation for people with disabilities, DETAC welcomed two disability-led national organizations to discuss employment – the National Council on Independent Living (NCIL) and the Association of Programs for Rural Independent Living (APRIL). They  highlighted how their work increases access to competitive, integrated employment nationally and how they collaborate with Centers for Independent Living (CIL) in all geographical locations across the country to do so. This webinar was intended for CILs but is applicable to other Administration on Disabilities stakeholders, as well as self-advocates and family members who want to learn about additional resources to boost employment outcomes.
