A big shoutout to our Employment Ambassador Charlotte, who did a fantastic job speaking at the Disability Employment Australia Conference on the Gold Coast this week! She joined our CEO Darryl Steff and Gemma Clark (Manager for Inclusion and Lived Experience, ACT Down Syndrome and Intellectual Disability) to talk about our Employment Connections Service, which has already supported 84 people with Down syndrome into real jobs with real pay. Programs like this work. Now it’s time to fund more of them.
