Autism Speaks: National Pathways to Employment

Only 20% of people with disabilities, including those with autism, are employed despite having the skillset and desire to work. Autism Speaks has a solution for that: Workplace Inclusion Now^TM (WIN), our workforce development program for employers, job seekers and community members. Join us at our free webinar where autistic job seekers and employers can connect and learn about WIN and the benefits of an inclusive workplace environment.

Who should come? Autistic job seekers, transition-age students, employers, human resource professionals and hiring managers, job coaches, vocational rehabilitation counselors, recruiters and those interested in autism and employment.
