#IDDidntStopMe - S2E2
Episode description
COVID has changed the way we work and live. Unemployment rates went up. But did you know that individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities have an unemployment rate of over 80% at baseline? Imagine if you went through school only to be told that you may not have a job afterwards?
So what is life like in these families? In this authentic conversation, facing the trials and joys of raising a child with an Intellectual and Developmental Disability, I welcome Noelle Alix, a finance attorney and co-owner of Beanz and Co, a cafe that focuses on inclusive employment.
Join me on this personal and emotional journey of the life of families who not only have to plan for themselves, but also the responsibility of planning for their children's future in a way that many people don't have to.
