Accessibility Ally is a podcast brought to you by Sea Change CoLab and Podstarter. In 10 episodes we aim to have conversations with folks who have disabilities, and those who are also accessibility allies, to help change the narrative. Throughout the series we chat with business managers, adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, organizations, government, and institutions working in the space of accessibility; who all support adults and children with intellectual and developmental disabilities. A lot of the conversation is educational, but is also about finding friendship, community and success in an accessible Nova Scotia. Support for this community is a choice, and it is about creating social and economic opportunities through fair wage jobs, and enhancing life skills. It's not hard to make some small changes to be a more inclusive workplace and society. The benefits are many including, economic, the bottom line of your business, and positively changes workplace culture. This podcast is narrated by Corrie Melanson.

A Case Study in Equitable Employment

It would be hard to find a more amazing, local example of an exceptional partnership for change in accessibility than that of 2 Crows Brewing and the Prescrott Group!

In this episode we sit down with Eric Dupont, who is the Operations Manager at 2 Crows Brewing in Halifax. 2 Crows partners with Prescott Group to hire adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDDs) in their warehouse. Jenn and Andrew are clients at Prescott, and both work in the 2 Crows warehouse. They share the highlights of working at 2 Crows and their wish that more people with IDDs could be hired in the community.
