Supporting Self-Employment for Entrepreneurs with Disabilities: Family Perspectives

Join the Administration on Disabilities (AoD) Disability Employment Technical Assistance Center (DETAC) for our February 2024 National Community of Practice (CoP) webinar. This event will highlight the importance of family support for people with disabilities who own their own businesses. We will begin with a brief recap of the work DETAC has done to advance self-employment opportunities for people with disabilities. Then, Sue Babin from the Rhode Island Developmental Disabilities Council (RIDDC) will facilitate a panel session featuring three family members of entrepreneurs with disabilities. The panelists will offer their perspectives on how to best support loved ones with disabilities who have goals of owning their own business.
