Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) are important in all facets of life, but especially when it comes to employment. There is a growing belief that diversity improves business success and creates a more positive work environment for everyone, however people with a variety of disabilities experience numerous employment barriers, resulting in unacceptable levels of unemployment and underemployment.
NEXT for AUTISM is dedicated to increasing visibility into company hiring statistics when it comes to employees with disabilities. We encourage you to take our NEXT for DEI Company Self-Assessment to help identify your company’s strengths and opportunities for growth.
The survey will take less than 5 minutes to complete, and the information provided will aid in NEXT’s creation of free tools and resources meant to assist companies in their disability inclusion journey. Be a leader for inclusion.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Lauren Todd Steinbacher, Director, Strategic Workforce Initiatives. Thank you for your consideration and time.
NEXT for AUTISM transforms the national landscape of services for people with autism by strategically designing, launching, and supporting innovative programs. They believe that individuals with autism have the potential to live fulfilling, productive lives when supported by excellent services and connected to their communities.
