Description
Did you know that October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month? The unemployment rate for adults with disabilities is almost triple that of those without a disability in the United States. One of our missions is to encourage companies to start hiring adults with disabilities. Today, we're speaking with Patrick Bardsley, Co-Founder & CEO of Spectrum Designs. They were founded in 2011 to provide jobs for adults with autism and now some of their clients include Google, ABC, Uber and more. We talked to Patrick about why they started the company, the benefits of hiring adults with a disability and how companies can find the right employees to join their team.
