Calling All Chatham County Employers!
Finding it hard to recruit, train, and retain entry-level employees? 

There’s an untapped, talented workforce right here in our community - individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) - ready to bring value, dedication, and new energy to your team. 

At this Coffee Talk, hosted in partnership with Work Together NC, you will:

• Learn from Local Employers: Hear success stories from businesses already thriving with IDD-inclusive hiring.
• Gain Firsthand Perspectives: Meet self-advocates with IDD who are excelling in their roles and eager to share their journeys. 
• Access Community Resources: Discover organizations offering job candidate referrals, training, and ongoing support. 
• Connect & Collaborate: Network with peers who are strengthening their workforce through innovative hiring. 

Enjoy complimentary coffee and pastries as you engage in this enriching conversation about workforce resilience and community impact.
