When
Where
Led by self advocates and a mentor, this panel discussion will focus on two employment areas: success in your current job and building a career path. It will provide strategies on getting the support needed for job success, especially when times feel stressful, tasks change, or if assistance is needed in making connections and feeling accepted. The second portion will focus on building a career path to reach future employment goals, advocating for moving forward, and learning from panelists on what and who helped when others said their goal may not be realistic.
