CDO Workforce and Family Resource Network are co-sponsoring a seminar about how to establish and grow your ABLE Accounts and ADA Basics for Job Seekers.
The seminar will explain the eligibility requirement and how to establish an ABLE Accounts. ABLE accounts help eligible individuals with disabilities save for their futures without jeopardizing their public benefits.
It is not required that you be receiving public benefits to have an ABLE account as there are significant financial advantages of having an ABLE account that can often outweigh other types of long-term savings tools.
Also ADA information will be provided about disclosing a disability in the workplace.
Interested in learning more about ABLE Accounts or about disclosing your disability? For more information about the seminar call 607-432-4800 x 109 or e-mail: .

We also strive to help employers find the workers they need quickly and the resources to improve training, workforce retention and workforce restructuring.
