Sensitivity Training

Join us for this FREE interactive training program where you will learn about the best ways to partner with those with developmental disabilities to help them build relationships and connect them with local businesses and people in the community. Equip yourself with awareness and knowledge so that you can do more to help those in our community because we believe that life is great when you're on your own, but it can be better when we're working together!

You will learn about:

• Individual fears and stereotypes about disabilities.
• How attitudes that are based on experience (or lack of experience) of a disability affect a person's willingness to hire an individual with a disability. 
• How easily emotional reactions to disabilities can be transferred. 

You will walk away with quick tips for appropriate etiquette when interacting with a person with a disability in the workplace.

Invite your friends and workers to join you for this important session.
