 There are nearly 1 million open jobs in Canada (and over 10 million in the US). With millions of jobs vacant, employers are struggling to find qualified candidates to fill these roles. A solution that has been long overlooked is the Down syndrome community. Over 50% of people with Down syndrome struggle to find paid work, as they’ve been wrongfully perceived as less capable and less valuable within the workforce. An additional barrier to employment is connection: If employers do have interest in hiring someone with Down syndrome, there’s currently nowhere to connect with them. Until now. Rubina talks with Laura LaChance, Chair at the Canadian Down Syndrome Society about "Inployable", a recruitment community on LinkedIn to make discovering and hiring people with Down syndrome easier.
