Alumni Stories: Visible and Invisible Disabilities at Work
Panel Discussion with UT Alumni
Friday March 26th 12-1pm
RSVP via Handshake
What is it actually like in the workplace as a person with a disability? Disability experiences in the workplace are not always widely known or discussed, and vary from person to person. Hear real stories of navigating visible and invisible disabilities at work from UT Austin alumni. The goal of this event is to provide a variety of perspectives as our panelists share their personal experiences with visible and invisible disabilities.
