Abilities Reimagined
Virginia Ability is looking to a future when Abilities Reimaged is commonplace, where people with disabilities and their potential are better understood, a diversity of thoughtful perspectives are celebrated, inclusive company cultures are valued, and most importantly, barriers to employment disappear. Businesses that understand the potential will hire individuals with disabilities for their abilities — because together we have the Ability to make the workplace work for everyone! Our mission and work are to recognize all Abilities with programs to:
EDUCATE businesses on the proven benefits of hiring qualified individuals with disabilities to their organization and the community in which they do business
CULTIVATE business and community employment resource partnerships to connect workforce talent with job opportunities
EMPOWER businesses to swing into action and make a positive and lasting impact on Virginia’s workforce and economy.
