Virtual series seeks public input for integrated employment plan, expands resources for those with disabilities

DELAWARE –  More resources are coming to those with disabilities in the first state as the Delaware Employment First Commission looks to implement its Integrated Employment Plan.

It’s spearheaded by the State Council for Persons with Disabilities.

The group will host a fall virtual series seeking input from families, advocates, and health care providers on additional resources.

The plan is a continuation of the legislation passed last year raising the minimum wage standard for those with disabilities.

We’re told getting community involvement will allow for the most solutions for the most people. “To create a more perfect plan that everybody can work with that’s going to create a smoother transition to a more inclusive work environment that provide equal opportunity and equal pay for everybody,” State Council for Persons with Disabilities Director John McNeal said.

The first webinar in the fall series starts Tuesday, October 11th at 6 p.m.
