I posted a link to this article a couple of days ago to see what the group's reaction woul be. I am posting the link again because this is a big deal. You see Federal dollars are allocated and distributed based off the census in many areas. If the new proposal is adopted and that accounts for a drop in 40% of the number od people with disabilities that means that there could very well be a 40% decrease in the amount of federal dollars allocated for programs to support the disability Community. This is not good! We need to make noise about this. Call your Congress person. Tell them NO on this. Together We Can make a difference! #AWU #togetherwecan

Hi Abled Workers Unite group. I just got back from a conference this week that was focused on equitable hiring of marginalized communities. Yes, the disabled community was included in the group of marginalized communities but let's just say not prominently.

Please focus on the words "not prominently". I would tell whoever would listen that Accessibility and Inclusion in the workplace should be a no brainer. Clearly they are not.

Why am I telling you this? To emphasize the importance of our group and its growth. Our goal (thank you Jobcase) is to build the largest community of people with disabilities who will speak as one collective voice to effect changes for Accessibility and Inclusion. Please invite fiends to our group at jobcase.com/groups. Together we can be a loud voice for change. #AWU #disability #togetherwecan
