What is this all about??
A listening session is a way to hear people’s stories and opinions. In this webinar, we will share what we have learned from the ThinkWork project and then ask for your opinions. We will ask questions like: What about this research is important to you? What have we left out? What should we do research on in the future?

ThinkWork is a project of the Institute for Community Inclusion at UMass Boston. We study: 1) how to get information out to everybody about employment; 2) what employment consultants actually do when they help people get jobs; 3) how providers can support more people in the community; and 4) how policies affect access to jobs for people with IDD.

This past summer and fall, we have been writing papers about our research, and then sharing what we learn. During this SARTAC webinar, we will talk about our research in plain language so that everyone has access to the information. Please join us!
