During December, it's a good
time to review what we have done over the past year and to plan ahead for progress in future months.
This is exactly what we did at a recent meeting of the
Vermont Governor’s Committee on the Employment of People With Disabilities (or, as we like to call it, the GCEPD).
This is one enthusiastic group of people with varied backgrounds and experiences related to the disability community. There’s so much to learn from
one another.
The GCEPD’s mission is to promote equal employment for all
citizens of Vermont by advising the Governor on current issues affecting employment
of people with disabilities, and through partnerships between business,
government, and people with disabilities.
Yes, the GCEPD is on youtube:
The past year we networked at business trade shows, we gave out awards to noteworthy employers, we engaged in the national Disability Employment Campaign “What Can You Do?”
We wrote a public service announcement for statewide distribution by our Governor, we "got our feet wet” in social media, and so much more…
To see the official website, go to:

What’s ahead? Stay tuned. The GCEPD is putting together some exciting plans to accomplish goals of promoting
and encouraging inclusivity in the workplace.
In the meantime, please check out the new FACEBOOK page for the
Vermont Governor’s Committee on the Employment of People With Disabilities.
Here’s hoping you’ll “like” us.
