An increasing number of businesses are hiring people with disabilities, accessing a skilled labor pool, and reaping the benefits of competitive integrated employment.
However, some employers may hesitate due to uncertainty or common misconceptions about the process.
In partnership with Plan Your Way OK, Autism Foundation of Oklahoma presents Partners in Success - a free workshop designed to build valuable partnerships between businesses, schools, nonprofits, and state agencies. This training provides useful information on employee management and the significant benefits of offering workplace tours, job shadowing, training, or employment opportunities to students with disabilities who are transitioning into the workforce.
The interactive workshop:
Reviews monetary and tax incentives
Provides helpful resources
Explores partnership options
Dispels common misconceptions about disabilities
Covers relevant laws and workplace accommodations
Provides a business case exercise to determine specific benefits of partnering
Program features:
The 90-minute training program is available in-person or virtually.
Content is presented in one sitting or in segments to meet business needs.
Each organization receives a complimentary AFO Sensory Kit.
After the workshop, employers gain access to beneficial partnerships, free consultations, and free training, including AFO’s LEAD: Neurodiversity in the Workplace program.
There is no obligation. Discover how competitive integrated employment can benefit your organization and your community!
