Imagine Technical Institute (ITI) invites business owners and human resource leaders to a special workshop titled “Disability Inclusion in the Workplace” on Friday, June 7, from 9:00 to 11:00 a.m. at SRC Holdings, located at 2401 E. Sunshine St., Springfield, MO 65804.
With thousands of Missouri adults with disabilities seeking competitive, integrated employment, this event will highlight how businesses can benefit from incorporating these individuals into their teams. Attendees will gain valuable insights and best practices for successfully implementing disability inclusion strategies within their organizations.

Participants will hear firsthand from peers who have successfully launched inclusive hiring initiatives, including Ken Talley, True Manufacturing’s Engineering Project Manager, and Kevin Thompson, Cambridge Air Solutions' former Chief Financial Officer and current Leadership Coach. 
“Disability inclusion is not only a moral imperative but also a strategic business decision,” said ITI Chief Program Officer Matt Jannings. “By tapping into the vast talent pool of individuals with disabilities, businesses can enhance productivity, team engagement, and overall workplace satisfaction.” 

Attendance at this workshop is free, but registration is required. Interested individuals can secure their spot at https://DisabilityInclusionintheWorkplace.eventbrite.com.
