Joining the team in 2013

The labor force participation of people with disabilities is 20.7% versus 69.2% of people without a disability; the unemployment rate of the disabled is a staggering 12.7% versus the “recession” mark of 7.1% of people without a disability.

We recognize that the labor force is inversely related to the unemployment rate. So, in the New Year, 2013 marks a focused effort to close the labor force participation gap of people with disabilities. We are asking the local community of Pendleton, Oregon, Hermiston, Oregon and surrounding areas to join the team to help close the gap. If you are outside these areas, join our Facebook page, comment on our blog, and above all else…get involved. Make 2013 about something bigger than one single person.
