Challenge Workforce Solutions is teaming up with Cornell’s Yang-Tan Institute on Employment and Disability to organize The Right Talent, Right Now—a free disability employment summit for employers and educators in the Ithaca area and beyond.

The summit takes place on Tuesday, October 15 from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at Clark Hall, Room 700, on Cornell’s central campus.

Coinciding with the U.S. Department of Labor’s National Disability Employment Awareness Month, The Right Talent, Right Now brings together prominent researchers, activists, filmmakers, and performing artists from around the community and nation, each with a distinctive and informed perspective on this timely topic.

Among the featured presenters is Bryan Roberts, associate dean, Roy H. Park School of Communications, and advocate for the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research.
