Hi Chuy! Thanks again for offering to post about my study on Facebook! I really appreciate it. Here's some text you can use.

-Matt
-------

Hi everyone! I'm Matthew Borus and some of you know me from various disability groups around Chicago. I'm also a researcher, and I'm currently looking to interview people about their experiences as part of my dissertation. If you qualify and we have an interview, you'll be paid for your time.

I'm looking for folks in the Chicago area who have at least ONE of four experiences:

-Working a paid job while having a disability, which could mean getting official accommodations, informal accommodations...or frustrating bosses who won't give you accommodations;

-Getting SSI or SSDI, or applying for either program;

-Living in a nursing home or other congregate care facility, either now or in the past;

-Having police and courts respond to your disability, like by having a case in a mental health court, or by police responding when you were in crisis.

If you've had ANY of those experiences, and you live in greater Chicago, you may be eligible to participate in the study and be paid for it.. If so, send me a Facebook message, email [email protected], or call me at 331-725-2920.

This project has been approved by the University of Chicago Institutional Review Board, IRB21-0416.

Timotheus Gordon Jr , Jr. is a researcher at the Institute on Disability and Human Development at the University of Illinois Chicago. Gordon will share his journey from struggling to find full-time employment to landing a research position at the University of Illinois Chicago. In his journey, he will discuss the barriers he
faced in seeking employment, how his skills and interests have helped him
secure and thrive in his current position, and how he navigates reasonable
accommodations in the workplace. Gordon will also highlight what reasonable
accommodations can look like for employers and employees with disabilities, as
well as addressing the lack of BIPOC (Black, Indigenous/Native American, and
People of Color) people with disabilities in the workplace and the need to
mentor BIPOC people with disabilities in growing their careers in any endeavor
or field they want to pursue. The webinar is again moderated by Chuy Campuzano,
a Consultant/Trainer from Chicago Illinois.



Learning Objectives

Audience members will understand barriers that people with disabilities face in finding and maintaining lasting full-time employment and careers.
Audience members will learn about additional barriers that BIPOC people with disabilities face in finding and maintaining employment, as well as ways to mentor BIPOC people with disabilities to thrive in their employment and career.
Audience members will gain insight on the importance of finding out a person’s interests and skills and how those can lead to developing employment opportunities.
Audience members will gain insight on the importance of reasonable accommodations, as well as analyzing examples of how employers can create inclusive workplace environments by providing reasonable accommodations.
