KY-SPIN’s Employment First: What It Means In Your Life Webinar by HDI

Guest Speaker: Katie Wolf Whaley, Project Director – Supported Employment Training Project, Human Development Institute (HDI)

Employment First: What it Means in Your Life? Most Americans grow up and go to work but when our loved one has a significant disability we sometimes wonder how, or if, that will happen. It may not be simple but it is certainly possible! This webinar will discuss the support system in Kentucky that can help someone find a good job. We will talk about the system itself – access, process and advocating within it – and the features of employment services you should expect. Finding a job is certainly not a one size fits all process and we will discuss strategies that can apply to making it work for your loved one.
