Is Your Job Posting Pushing People Away? What People with Disabilities Are Looking for in Job Opportunities

Tuesday, January 27, 2026 from 1:00-2:00 p.m. ET

Join Emma Allen (Director of Operations at the Bell Museum in Minnesota), for a critical discussion on job postings and the subtle, often hidden barriers that prevent qualified candidates with disabilities from applying.

Drawing on 15 years as a hiring manager and her personal experience navigating the job market with disabilities, Emma will outline simple, actionable changes your organization can implement today. Learn how to transform your job posting and hiring process to genuinely signal that you are open to all applicants.
