While many employers recognize the importance of incorporating disability into their talent management strategies and value a disability-inclusive workplace culture, many need assistance in knowing how to effectively recruit, hire, and retain, and advance people with disabilities. Disability workforce intermediaries work with employers to 1) educate businesses on the benefits of a disability-inclusive workforce; 2) identify and directly connect employers with qualified job seekers with disabilities; and 3) provide ongoing supports to ensure the success of people with disabilities after employment. Intermediaries that work in this arena have two customers — individuals with disabilities and employers.
