About the Event
Neurodiversity recognizes that people think, learn, communicate, and process information in different ways. These differences can bring valuable strengths, perspectives, and skills to the workplace.
This Think Jobs Roundtable will bring together employers, workforce professionals, community organizations, and local partners for a conversation about how businesses can recognize talent, remove barriers, and create workplaces where employees of all abilities can succeed.
Attendees will have the opportunity to learn practical strategies, hear different perspectives, and connect with others who are committed to strengthening inclusive employment opportunities throughout Dutchess County.
