Opportunities For All
"Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will. "
- Mahatma Gandhi
In Brazil there are Social Inclusion laws since 1989, however, despite all public and private actions taken so far, focusing on the inclusion of professionals with disability in the workforce, there are still some difficulties in some public and office facilities. In some cities, walkways and public transportation vehicles are still not adequate to the needs of people with disabiliy.
To overcome these challenges, most companies are adjusting their office facilities, while some companies are looking for creative solutions on how their workers with disability can work virtually, from their own homes.
I would recommend you take a look at this website, which was created with the objective of making a connection between companies an professionals with disability:

We all, in our organizations, should include such important subject in our meetings, promoting discussions and finding solutions for offering more job opportunities to talented professionals with disability.
