Abstract

The 44 series is an ongoing series of webinars (each about 44 minutes long, hence the name!) that address various topics related to integrated employment for individuals with IDD. In this edition to the series, originally presented on 11/27/18, speaker Liz Weintraub discussed issue of choice and self-direction in the job search process. She focused on challenges, risk, and empowerment for job seekers with disabilities. Liz has a long history of leadership in self-advocacy, and is currently a full-time member of the policy team at the Association of University Centers on Disabilities (AUCD).
