Rack Cards
There are ten rack cards in this series. Nine feature the success stories of individuals with disabilities who have found rewarding employment. One is a Fact Sheet that highlights Hiring/Retention tips and Tax Incentives. These rack cards are best used in plexiglass holders and displayed in offices, waiting areas, schools, Chambers, etc., or on a table during a working lunch or dinner.

Day in the Life Posters
These three 11x17 posters share stories of individuals with disabilities who have experienced personal transformations through rewarding employment. Mount them on blackboard or foam core and attach an easel back (purchased at an office supply store or craft store), or simply tack them to a bulletin board. Place them in waiting rooms, shared kitchens, youth centers, employment offices, or social center bulletin boards (town halls, Y’s, etc.) Because these are materials that require close reading, place them at eye level or in a place where they can be picked up and read.
