An estimated 34.2 million US citizens have a disability, yet only 26% of people with a disability are known to be in the workforce. These statistics could change due to movements for inclusion and technology advancements. However, stigma persists regarding asking and answering the question “do you have a disability?” On May 21, tune in to an informative webinar to learn about differences between self-identification and self-disclosure and how this sensitive question makes people feel and react.
The webinar will also cover why the self-identification question is asked, how that information is tracked, stored and utilized, and what can be done to make everyone more knowledgeable and more comfortable about this topic.
