Healthcare & Employment

This is October which means it is National Disability Employment Awareness month. At the sametime throughout the halls of Congress is a major healthcare debate. But no one seems to be making the link between healthcare and employment particularly for those with disabilities.

Healthcare while vital for all Americans is critical for the disability community because it enhances one's quality of life and creates further opportunities for millions of people with disabilities. Corporations have to see the vital role that healthcare plays for the retention of employees but the ability for them to add valuable human capital to there organizations.
