HireAbility Spokane/WISE presentation to (PICCE)- Partners in Campus and Community Engagement

HireAbility Spokane, in cooperation with WISE, gave an informative presentation to the representatives from PICCE. The presentation was led by Stephen Eyman, a Program Manager for WISE and Charly Walters, also a Program Manager for Wise and Team Leader for HireAbility Spokane.

PICCE is a regional cooperative of educational institutions, community partners, and other stakeholders committed to the development and promotion of service-learning. PICCE meets monthly in Spokane, WA and is made up of the five major area higher educational institutions: Eastern Washington University, Gonzaga University, Community Colleges of Spokane, Washington State University, and Whitworth University.

The presentation was an opportunity for Charly and Stephen to educate the representatives about the efforts of Wise and HireAbility Spokane in the community, including a history of discrimination of individuals with disabilities in the workplace, and ways to provide better inclusivity and diversity in the organizations that were present.
