CAP Workshop: Deciding to Disclose (11/13/24)

The Decision to Disclose workshop focuses on how a person with a disability decides whether or not they should disclose their disability at different stages of the employment process. Attendees will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of disclosure. If a person decides to disclose, what should they reasonably be expected to share? During this one hour workshop, attendees will participate in guided exercises where they practice:

1. weighing the advantages and disadvantages of disclosing,
2. describing their disability-related limitations and not their diagnosis, and
3. responding to specific situations in employment where they may need to decide whether to disclose their disability.
