Affiliates Matter

If your company operates in any of the 25 states that our 30 sister affiliates* are located, you should consider engagement in these local chapters. It’s at the local level that meaningful engagement occurs and enables your local leaders, your ERG Members and your employees to understand and model disability inclusion.
