We wrap up Season 1 of the Community Unmuted podcast by talking to Joe Thottungal and Kelsey Ross. Joe is a chef with nearly 30 years of culinary experience who practices inclusive hiring at his restaurants. Kelsey is an Employment Outreach Coordinator with Ready, Willing and Able (RWA) in the Ottawa Region. RWA is a national initiative designed to increase the labour force participation of people with an intellectual disability or on the autism spectrum.
In this conversation with Joe and Kelsey, we address barriers to people who have a disability finding employment, workplace accommodations, how Ready, Willing and Able helps connect employers to job seekers, and more.
