Fostering Respectful Relationships in the Workplace:  Disability Awareness

Parent to Parent of NYS, with funding as NYS’ Family to Family Health Care Information Center, has developed a two page awareness sheet about Disability Awareness in the workplace.

The messages that leaders and co-workers convey play an important role in how everyone reacts.  The fast pace of today’s society, including the media and social networking, bombards everyone with multiple messages.   All employers and employees have the potential to model pro-active disability awareness messages for other employees and each other.
