Identifying and Serving Job Seekers with Hidden Disabilities in our Workforce Centers

WIBs and other human service organizations must be able to serve individuals with disabilities. Many disabilities, such as cognitive functions and chronic disease, are “hidden” that is they are not readily apparent. Counselors need to know what these disabilities and how to relate to these individuals. This presentation by CLM Connection in Ocala FL provides an overview of the issues and practical advice on how to identify and serve these individuals.

This short presentation can be used to orient employers and case workers about individuals with “hidden” disabilities.
