  The Lifeworks Disability Inclusion Breakfast is our annual gathering for business leaders, community members, and self-advocates to learn how they can be a part of making disability inclusion the standard in our communities.

  This year, our panel will explore Accessibility in Action: Real Stories of Disability-Inclusive Change, digging into what is takes to create a truly accessible environment, and what changes when you do create one. Our panelists will share how they’ve moved beyond compliance to create workplaces that are truly inclusive of people with disabilities.

  The event includes:

  • Opening remarks from Gertrude Matemba-Mutasa, President and CEO of Lifeworks
  • Panel discussion moderated by Keeri Tramm, Director of Disability Initiatives at Lifeworks
  • Table conversations and reflections for attendees
  • Breakfast and networking
